Summer Wine Smoothie Recipes
Beat the Heat with a Wine Smoothie!
A few years ago, I tried my first wine smoothie at the New York State Fair--it was the perfect relief from the muggy heat. All you need is some fruit, wine, and a blender. Add a few fancy glasses, garnishes, and fun friends for a great summertime party.
I'm providing some recipes for smoothies I've come up with, but you can definitely experiment. If you come up with a great new recipe, be sure to share it with the rest of us in the comments capsule below!
Tropical White Wine Smoothie
- 1 cup frozen strawberries
- 1 cup frozen mango chunks
- 1 cup frozen pineapple pieces
- 1 fresh banana
- 1-1/2 cups white wine
In a blender, mix until smooth. For a zing, use a bit less wine and replace with lemonade or limeade. This refreshing drink will send you buzzing through summer.
Rad Berry Red Wine Smoothie
- 2 cups frozen raspberries
- 1 cup frozen blueberries
- 1/2 cup yogurt
- 1-1/2 cups red wine
Combine in a blender and mix until smooth. For a creamier smoothie, add more yogurt.
You can also try other ingredients, like substitute the yogurt with a fresh banana, or try using other kinds of frozen berries.

That picture looks awesome, will definitely try it out, I hesitate drinking wines directly but once I know it tastes good, I can try them out. The above recipe I will definitely give it a shot. Thanks. Cheers. :)
This sounds so refreshing and I never thought about it. Great Idea!

I am a little late for Summer but this sounds like it would be so yummy with a burger!
These were both delicious, perfect for a hot summer day by the pool!

Wow, sounds like a great "stealth" way to get a buzz! :-) We'll try this this weekend, along with the 3-finger 2BC Chard.
