Sangria Slushy

sangria slushy, almost healthy

Sangria Slushies


Although I don’t drink much wine I know most people do.  Here’s a lovely little recipe I cam up with.  I love my blender (a vitamix) but any blender will work.  I’m always coming up with new ideas for my blender.  I love smoothies.  

Then I thought about a hot day on the beach as the sun set and figured an alcoholic drink sounded great.

Out came the vitamix.

Here’s what I used:

2 clementines
1 banana
1 cup pineapple
1 cup white wine


Blend until smooth.  Then add ice an blend some more.
Sometimes I use frozen bananas and or pineapples too.


Of course you can vary this.


mangos and pineapple
orange and banana
grapes and kiwi


Be creative.  It’s almost healthy.  Darker wines for darker fruits.  White wines for the tropical lighter colored ones.  
I made one with vodka and carbonated water.  It was yummy too.  So refreshing on a hot summer day.
