As you may have noticed, I have not blogged in a number of weeks. I would like to blame this on my continuing education, but the semester has been over for while. FAIL.
As an apology for my neglect, I offer to you, not one, but three yummy, frozen wine slush recipes. Just in time for the holiday weekend!
Try one (or three) out this weekend, then comment below to let me know how they were!
Cheers!

Zingy
1 bottle Chatham Hill Pinot Grigio or Riesling
1 can frozen limeade concentrate
1 cup cranberry juice
Food pairings: chips and salsa, grilled shrimp, caesar salad
Tropical
1 bottle Chatham Hill Chardonnay
6 oz. mango nectar
1 cup pineapple juice
Food pairings: grilled shrimp skewers with pineapple salsa, cheddar cheese fondue, fruit and cheese tray
Jammy
1 bottle Chatham Hill Merlot or Syrah
1 cup pomegranate juice (such as POM)
1 pint blackberries
Food pairings: grilled rib-eye steaks topped with bleu cheese, seared tuna, antipasto platter
They’re all assembled the same way. Add wine, fruit juice or fresh fruit to blender, blend until smooth, and freeze. The alcohol will prevent the mixture from becoming solid ice. For a quicker result, blend the mixture in an electric ice-cream maker and process until slushy.
Chatham Hill Winery, an Urban Winery in the Heart of North Carolina, was established in 1999 as the first winery in the Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill area. Our mission is to produce distinctive, handcrafted wines of high quality and purity from grapes grown in North Carolina. The majority of Chatham Hill wines—including Chardonnay, Viognier, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc—are handcrafted from the best quality Yadkin Valley AVA grapes produced by our grower partners.
