Where to Cool Off with Frosé in D.C.

It's this summer's big drink trend. Icy and boozy at the same time, frosé is a cross between rosé wine and a slushie. It's a playful, childlike treat that's meant only for adults.

Rosé wine has had a huge resurgence in popularity over the last several years and wine slushies have also been appearing here and there. Now bartenders are taking it to the next level and combining the two items. It's not as simple as pouring from fruity rosé into a margarita machine, though.

Bars are putting their own mark on the drink, spiking it with Aperol, fruit, and even flavored vodkas. It's ideal for hot summer days spent on the patio, rooftop, or even hiding in an air conditioned bar.
