Strawberry Prosecco Slushie

I love this grown-up slushie. It’s refreshing, fruity and light, making it ideal for hot summer days or nights. The elderflower cordial reminds me of all that’s best about an English summer. However, it also works well for year-round parties. Dancing in hot rooms in your best evening wear can have you longing for a cooling treat so this iced drink is perfect. In an elegant cocktail glass, it’s smart enough for a wedding or a ball. Yet it’s easy to make at home for a party in the garden or supper with friends. Make it in advance and then blend to serve when your guests are ready.

How to Make a Strawberry Prosecco Slushie

Strawberry prosecco slushie. Poaching the strawberries and passing the fruit through a sieve.

Step one – Put the water, cordial and strawberries in a pan. Gently simmer for a couple of minutes until the fruit is soft. 

Step two – Lightly mash the fruit.

Step three – Pass the mixture through a sieve. Use a spoon or spatula to press the flesh of the fruit through the sieve. Discard the pips left behind in the sieve.

Step four – Allow to cool.

Step five – Mix the strawberry and elderflower with the same volume of prosecco. Then put it in a freezer-safe pot in the freezer and leave to freeze. It will not become solid ice because of the sugar and alcohol – it should be more like sorbet.

Step six – When you are ready to serve, break the frozen mixture up with a fork. Put it in a blender jug and give it a quick whizz. 

Step seven – Add the same volume of prosecco again. Then blend until smooth. Be careful not to over-blend, as you don’t want it to melt.

Serve strawberry prosecco slushie immediately in chilled cocktail glasses. To give it a celebration feel, garnish with a strawberry, mint and a slice of lemon or lime.

Hints, Tips & Variations for Strawberry Prosecco Slushie

  • Try other flavours of cordial. Anything light and fruity will work well, so experiment.
  • You can leave out the cordial. If you do, double the liquid and sugar. 
  • Use the best strawberries you can find, especially out of season. I like ‘Katrina’ in the early autumn.   
  • Use champagne (not too dry) or a rosé wine instead of prosecco.
  • You can also freeze the strawberry and prosecco mix in an ice cube tray. This works well for serving smaller numbers, so try it if you are entertaining one special guest. When frozen, put the cubes in a box or bag to store in the freezer. Take out as many as you need. 
  • Use a good blender – it makes life so much easier!  

A Good Slushie Needs a Good Blender

To make a smooth slushie, you need a good blender. I made this strawberry prosecco slushie with my new KitchenAid High Performance Blender.

The blender is solid and reassuringly heavy. It’s also remarkably quiet for a power blender. A great vortex is important to the design. This drags the ingredients down into the blades, so there’s no need to use the damper to push them.

    I used to make something similar with lemon ice cream and champagne, but this idea with fresh strawberries is a total winner! I love this idea and will make it asap. Good thing we have great strawberries in the market right now (it’s spring here). Great drink recipe, thanks for sharing!

    I’m loving the retro look blender, Helen. Would look so much nicer on the kitchen counter than the one I have, that looks more like a space craft!

    So, you just took some of my favorite things (sparkling wine with elderflower and strawberries) and turned them into something totally amazing. I can’t wait to try this. It would be perfect for a bridal shower or Mother’s Day brunch!
