Strawberry Melon Wine Slushie
Summer may be almost over, but if you're still expecting a little more sunshine, this indulgent slushie is just the thing for staying refreshed. And there's more than enough for two, so you won't be short on company when keeping cool!
Equipment
- Blender
- Ice Cube Tray
Ingredients
- 1 honeydew melon
- 300 g strawberries
- 100 ml vodka
- 2 tbsp honey
- some mint leaves
- 200 ml sparkling wine
Instructions
- Cut a thin slice from the underside of the melon, so that it'll stay standing upright. From the top side, cut a slice thick enough so that you can then hollow out the melon with a spoon. Throw away the seeds and put the flesh of the fruit in a blender.
- Add the strawberries, vodka and honey on top of the melon and mix the ingredients until they have a smooth consistency.
- Pour the mixture into a large ice cube tray. Place a mint leaf on top of each cube.
- As soon as the cubes are frozen, place them in the blender again with the sparkling wine and mix. Then pour everything back into the hull of the melon.
