It might seem like an unusual combination, however, wine and smoothies combine into one delectable beverage that is super delicious! They’re both refreshing, delicious, and give you an excuse to drink more than one glass at a time.
The best part about these recipes is that they require minimal effort, as most of them can be prepared in under 30 minutes! So, when it’s hot outside, these refreshing drinks will help keep things cool while getting your daily dose of vitamins.
Sounds fantastic, right? Here are six recipes for smoothies with wine to try this summer!
Strawberry Rose Smoothie
This creamy, refreshing blend of strawberries and rosé wine is a crowd-pleaser. The drink is light and fruity, with hints of rosé that are sure to make anyone swoon. Strawberries are rich in vitamin C and antioxidants, but they also have a high water content that makes them great for balancing out more decadent ingredients. Rosé wine is sweet, with fragrant flowers and dried fruit notes, making it an excellent complement to the strawberry’s tartness.
Peach Basil Sangria
This sangria-inspired smoothie will taste like summer in a glass without all the sugar! The raspberries provide sweetness while the peach adds flavor and color; both are complemented by a splash of white wine or champagne to balance out the flavors. The finished product will make you feel like you’re sipping on an exotic island cocktail while lounging on your patio without having to leave home!
Berry Wine Smoothie
This berry-filled smoothie will make you feel like you’re sipping summer itself! The combination of blackberries, raspberries (or any other berry), white wine, and vanilla extract creates an intoxicating blend of sweet flavor with an oaky finish making it a perfect treat for any day of the week.
Strawberry Limeade Smoothie
This sweet smoothie combines fresh strawberries with lime juice for a tangy flavor that will wake up your taste buds. The limeade adds just enough tartness to cut through the sweetness of the strawberries without being overpowering while still allowing their natural flavor to shine through.
You can add a little white wine to give it an extra kick! The result is a refreshing drink that will leave you feeling energized.
Watermelon Bellini Smoothie
Watermelon and champagne go together like peanut butter and jelly, so why not add some white wine for another layer of flavor? This light and creamy smoothie is perfect for those hot summer days when you need something cool and refreshing but don’t want anything too heavy or filling. Plus, it only takes 5 minutes to make!
Orange Creamsicle Wine Smoothie
This refreshing smoothie has all the flavor of an orange creamsicle without any of the sugar. This smoothie combines orange juice concentrate with vanilla yogurt and white wine for an indulgent treat made even more delicious by swapping out sugar for wine! It is perfect for summertime when you want something cold but not too sweet.
If you’re looking for a new way to enjoy your favorite red wine or white wine, these smoothies will give you the same effervescence as wine without any dryness.
