Creating a Watermelon Frosé Ice Cream Float is a refreshing and sophisticated twist on a classic dessert. This recipe combines the coolness of watermelon, the crispness of rosé and the sweetness of lemonade, topped with creamy vanilla ice cream and tart freeze-dried raspberries.
Ingredients:
- 1/4 watermelon, peeled, chopped, frozen overnight
- 1 1/2 cups (375ml) vodka
- 750ml bottle chilled rosé
- 2 cups (500ml) chilled lemonade
- Vanilla Ice Cream
- Crushed freeze-dried raspberries, to serve
Method:
Peel and chop 1/4 of a watermelon, then freeze the chunks overnight until firm.
Place the frozen watermelon chunks, vodka and chilled rosé in a blender. Blend until smooth and frothy.
Pour the blended frosé mixture evenly into chilled glasses.
Top each glass with chilled lemonade to add sweetness and effervescence.
Top each glass with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. The contrast of creamy vanilla and fruity frosé is delicious.
Sprinkle crushed freeze-dried raspberries over the ice cream for a burst of colour and tangy flavour.
Serve the Watermelon Frosé Ice Cream Float immediately while it’s still cold and refreshing.
