How about a little wine to start your day?
It’s no secret that I love wine. Sweet wines. While I’m getting slightly more accustomed to Merlot and Cabernet, dry wines are still not my favorite. Which is why I love Moscato, Riesling, and my all-time favorite, a sweet red wine from the best winery around.
I’ve talked about it before, I’ve shared a few cocktail recipes, and the hubster and I are even a part of a sweet wine club at our favorite restaurant and winery.
If you’re looking for a bottle of wine, you can find at least ten (or more) on our wine rack. See, we adore wine, but we don’t drink it as much as we should. And I don’t mean guzzling down a bottle a day. But, we’re lucky if we crack open a bottle once or twice a month. Sometimes beer just wins over wine (hello, summer shandy and blue moon…have you tried their peach ale? Delish!)!
And that’s why I’m sharing these Berry Cherry Wine Slushies with you today. It’s a deliciously sweet way to cool down on a hot summer day and it’s perfect to use up some of that wine that you might have sitting around.

Did you catch that? These wine slushies contain just three ingredients…three! I’m hesitant to even call this a recipe because of how easy it is, but, let me tell you…this is good. SO good! And refreshing. Give me a straw, point me to the pool, and I’m set for the day.
I used Riesling in this drink, but feel free to use whatever you have on-hand. The sweetness from the blueberries and cherries will make even the driest of wine just a little bit fruitier. And we could all use a little fruitiness in life, right?
One sip and you’ll be hooked on these Berry Cherry Wine Slushies! Blended to perfection and bursting with just the right amount of flavor, you really can’t get much easier than this. The tartness from the cherries and sweetness of the blueberries pair perfect with Riesling.
Cool, refreshing, and oh-so good…this is the ultimate frozen cocktail for the summer! Serve it for holidays, get-togethers, or lazy days by the pool. I guarantee once you try this, you’ll be coming back for more!

Wine in a slushy? I can just imagine how refreshing these would be on a hot summer day and they would go down very well with my friends at a party. Sadly I will just have to imagine for the next few months.
Gayle says
This has been my go-to drink for the summer! Hopefully you’ll be able to enjoy this soon, Dannii! 🙂
Mir says
Oh my goodness, a wine slushie. I am undone here. I’d probably slurp down a bunch and be a lot of fun to hang out with! 😉
Seriously, this is the best thing ever!
Gayle says
Haha right?! These go down way too easily! 🙂 Thanks for the kind words, Mir!
Sarah @Whole and Heavenly Oven says
Oh my goodness, YES!! I’ve made wine slushies before but never with cherries before! I mean, why?? Cherries RULE this time of year and this slushy has GOT to happen for the upcoming holiday weekend! Love love the color!!
Gayle says
I am loving cherries this year! Especially in frozen drink form. Thanks, Sarah!
Kelly // The Pretty Bee says
Wow, the rich color of this slushie is gorgeous! What a lovely summer drink!
Gayle says
Thank you, Kelly!
Jen | Baked by an Introvert says
A wine slushy is exactly what I want over the holiday weekend! Love this idea, Gayle!! And the berry cherry combination is perfect for summer. It’s like a refreshing frozen sangria.
Gayle says
Thanks, Jen! This is much needed because it’s been so hot lately!
mira says
This slushie looks gorgeous! Love it! It will be perfect for a summer party!
Gayle says
Thanks for the slushy love, Mira!
Alice @ Hip Foodie Mom says
Gayle, I’ll never turn down a glass of wine! 🙂 and if we’re talking about this gorgeous berry cherry wine slushie, gimme gimme! Looks amazing and so refreshing! love the blueberries + cherries combo!
Gayle says
Thank you, Alice! It’s always wine time somewhere, right? 🙂
annie@ciaochowbambina.com says
Berry cherry wine slushy? I am all about this!! So sweet and refreshing! I like my sweet wines, too!
Gayle says
Thanks, Annie!
marcie says
I love red wine, but I do the occasional beer because when it’s hot, red wine doesn’t really hit the spot. I love Summer Shandy and I’ve not tried the Blue Moon Peach Ale — I need that! This slushy looks so good right now, and I love how easy it is! That berry-cherry combo sounds like a winner, and this would work with my red wine too. This looks so refreshing and pretty!
Gayle says
Thank you, Marcie! I think this would definitely work with red wine, too. I’ve been making these slushies a lot this summer!
Manali@CookWithManali says
This looks so refreshing! I love cherries!
Gayle says
Thanks, Manali!
Ashley@CookNourishBliss says
Wine is definitely my drink of choice! This winery right by our house makes wine slushies and these remind me of them so much! Must make some for myself at home!
Gayle says
Wine slushies are SO good when you make them yourself! 🙂
Cheyanne @ No Spoon Necessary says
I’m a wine over beer kind of girl, though I DO love blue moon! Make that a frozen wine slushie, and I am seriously in heaven! LOVE these slushies Gayle! The cherries and blueberries with the sweet wine sounds (and looks) amazing! I can already picture myself sipping (or gulping) these for the rest of summer! Pinned! Cheers!
Gayle says
Thanks, Cheyanne!
Cyndi - My Kitchen Craze says
Wine is my drink of choice over any other alcoholic drink and oh my gosh I need this drink in my hand right this second!! This slushie would be perfect on these hot summer days we’re having. I was at the pool las week and it was 113 outside, so needless to say this drink would be PERFECT!! Making this asap! 🙂
Gayle says
Sounds like you need as many frozen drinks as you can your hands on! 🙂 Thanks, Cyndi!
Alaina @ A Not So Quiet Kitchen says
These look oh-so-good!! And so easy, can’t beat that!! Perfect for a hot summer day 🙂 Blue Moon is one of my fave go-to summer beers, I haven’t tried the Peach Ale though!
Gayle says
Thank you for the slushie love, Alaina!
Blair @ The Seasoned Mom says
Sweet wines are my favorite, too. Pinot Grigio in the summer or a good Reisling always hit the spot. This combo sounds like the PERFECT summer cocktail!
Gayle says
Thank you, Blair! This is much needed with it being so hot around here! 🙂
Dawn @ Girl Heart Food says
How did I miss this yesterday? This looks delicious, Gayle! 3 ingredients and I get to be sipping on this thirst-quenching treat? Hubby and I both love wine, but beer is pretty great too. Peach ale? That sounds amazing! I love pumpkin beer in the Fall too. The colour of this slushie is so pretty and it comes just in time for the long weekend! Pinned, of course 🙂 Have an awesome weekend!
Gayle says
Thank you, Dawn! I LOVE pumpkin beer and can’t wait until it’s out again! Unfortunately, the peach ale was seasonal, so I’m really hoping it comes out again next spring, because it was SO good! Thanks for the pin and kind words, friend!
Kristine | Kristine's Kitchen says
These wine slushies look so refreshing! They’d be the perfect drink for the hot weather we’ve been having here. And that color- I don’t think I’d be able to stop staring at my glass if I had one of these in my hand! 🙂
Gayle says
Thank you, Kristine! I love this pretty color, too!
Christine@ Apple of My Eye says
Wait!! I am SO obsessed with the idea of wine slashes! I’m a sweet wine girl too and Rieslings are my favorite! Can’t wait to try this out! Perfect for boozing in the summer!
Gayle says
Thank you so much for the slushie love, Christine!
Demeter | Beaming Baker says
Gayle, it’s like you just KNOW exactly what we’re all craving. Like, day and night. The second your homepage loaded, I was like, YUP. I’m at Gayle’s and this is gonna be good. I love the combo of cherries and blueberries. Plus, wine? What more could you really need for the summer? And honestly, maybe we can whip some of these up throughout the year? End of week cocktails would be sooo much better! 🙂 Hoping you have an awesome Fourth! Pinning, of course! xoxoxo
Gayle says
Anything with wine has got to be good, right? 🙂 And yes to frozen drinks year round! Thanks for the kind words and pin, friend!
