Do you know what happens when you blend a sweet Riesling with strawberries? Strawberry Riesling! It’s like a little sip of summer that melts in your mouth!
I love a good dry Riesling. There’s nothing better than a glass of chilled wine on a warm day. However, a wine smoothie isn’t too bad either. We pick a lot of Oregon strawberries every year and freeze them up, so I always have a supply of them handy.
I’ve always enjoyed a few sliced up fresh strawberries in my Riesling, but one day I thought about just blending the two flavors together. So I did just that. I poured 4 ounces of a dry Riesling that didn’t cost too much (Chateau Ste Michelle Riesling is great for the price)! Then, I added 1/2 cup of frozen strawberries and blended them until smooth.
I then poured it into a wine glass
and garnished with a strawberry before sipping.

All you need to do is to make this drink is pour the 4 ounces of your favorite Riesling and 1/2 cup of strawberries (I used frozen) into a blender until smooth. Voila! Instant wine smoothie.
Doesn’t this just make you wish for a warm summer afternoon right now?
Have you ever made your own wine smoothies before?

Melissa – your name caught my eye on the follow friend Friday bloghop – I used to live in Salem and went to college at Oregon State. And I couldn't believe this recipe was the first post that I saw, because I JUST walked through the door with groceries including riesling and strawberries! Can't wait to try this out, and you have a new follower. 🙂

That is too funny!!! Make sure you use a riesling thats not dry….or else it can turn out a little too tart! 😉
