Print Recipe

A simple, refreshing, and boozy watermelon frosé punch bowl perfect for spontaneous summer parties, combining fresh watermelon, rosé wine, sparkling water, and mint for a slushy, thirst-quenching treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups seedless watermelon chunks, fresh and ripe
  • 1 bottle (750 ml) dry rosé wine, chilled
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • 1 cup sparkling water, chilled
  • 1/4 cup simple syrup (optional)
  • A handful fresh mint leaves, lightly bruised
  • Ice cubes as needed for serving and chilling

Instructions

  1. Cut about 4 cups (600 grams) of seedless watermelon into chunks and remove any seeds if necessary.
  2. Place the watermelon chunks into a high-speed blender and pulse until smooth but still slightly textured, like a slushy (1-2 minutes). Blend in batches if needed.
  3. Pour the pureed watermelon into a large punch bowl or serving pitcher.
  4. Add the entire bottle of chilled rosé wine (750 ml), 2 tablespoons (30 ml) fresh lime juice, and 1/4 cup (60 ml) simple syrup if using. Stir gently to combine.
  5. Pour in 1 cup (240 ml) chilled sparkling water and toss in a handful of lightly bruised fresh mint leaves. Stir gently to incorporate.
  6. Refrigerate the punch for 30 minutes to let flavors marry or serve immediately over plenty of ice cubes.
  7. Garnish with lime slices, small watermelon wedges, and extra mint sprigs before serving.

Notes

Keep sparkling water separate until serving to retain fizz. Avoid freezing the entire punch mixture to maintain slushy texture. Use ripe but firm watermelon for best texture. Pulse blender to keep some texture. Mint leaves should be lightly bruised to release aroma without bitterness. Simple syrup is optional depending on watermelon sweetness. For a lower-alcohol or non-alcoholic version, substitute rosé with rosé grape juice or half rosé and half sparkling water.
