How’s it going?!

Before we get to celebrating #ThirstyThursday, there is something that I MUST get off my chest.

The first apple recipe landed in my email’s inbox this morning. And, I may have had a (totally minor) temper tantrum. No one was around to witness my childlike antics, so who can say for sure what my reaction REALLY looked like. 😉

In all seriousness though, I’m going to be completely transparent here.

While I won’t hate on anyone who wants to press fast forward on their life, and basically skip through the latter part of the most GLORIOUS season of the year, I want you lovely readers to know one thing…

You WON’T be seeing ANY apple, pumpkin, or fall flavored recipes on NSN until autumn has OFFICIALLY arrived (which is on, or after, September 22 at 4:02 P.M. EDT).

I refuse to participate in that nonsense. Life is short enough and the produce of summer is simply too stunning for that foolishness.

Not to mention, it’s still hotter outside than a firecracker on the 4th of July.

So, friends, I am going to BASK in the summer sun. And STUFF my face with all the fabulous fruit, creamy-dreamy ice cream, and ALL the things sensationally summer until I can’t stuff no mo’.

Who’s with me?!?

I’m offering up these fancy floats as a bribe…

Peach Strawberry Sorbet Rosé Float

AKA festive, fizzy summer fun that can double as cocktails AND dessert!

This dessert-esque luxurious libation is light and refreshing with quadruple scoops of fabulously fruity, luscious peach and strawberry sorbet, topped off with aromatic liqueur and effervescent, sweet rosé.

The taste is bomb dot com, but my favorite part of this float?

It’s like a real life cocktail transformer.

This float starts off as a grownup, fizzy sundae you eat with a spoon, and then it magically changes, as the sorbet starts to melt, into a silky smooth, rich cocktail perfect for guzzling.

It is STUPENDOUS.

And you just shouldn’t celebrate summer without a Sorbet Rosé Float…. or five. 😉

Notes, Tips & Tricks for Peach Strawberry Sorbet Rosé Float:

  1. You can substitute Granita, Italian Ice or Sherbet for the Sorbet if desired. Granita and Italian Ice will yield the most similar texture float as sorbet. If you use sherbet you will have a creamier textured float since sherbet contains dairy.
  2. You can substitute prosecco or plain champagne for the rosé if desired.
  3. The liqueur is optional, but recommended! I have used both Blood Orange Liqueur and Elderflower Liqueur when making these floats and both are delicious. Blood orange liqueur will add a velvety sweetness along with notes of orange and raspberry to the float. Elderflower Liqueur will add warm floral notes to the float.
  4. You can either purchase sorbet or make it yourself. I’ve included instructions to DIY sorbet in the notes section of the recipe below.

Kids shouldn’t have all the summer fun! Add these boozy dessert floats to your summer celebration line up! But don’t forget to bookmark, or Pin, these for New Years Eve, Valentine’s Day and ALL your celebratory soirees! Sorbet Rosé Floats shouldn’t just be limited to summer.

Until next week, friends, cheers – to float #adulting.

XOXO

      This is a luxurious little deck drink. The kind where you might have a friend or two over and sitting on the deck, enjoying the summer sun. I love it.

      I agree, kids shouldn’t have all the fun with their root beer floats! Though, if my kiddo saw this, she might insist we travel back to Europe where I recreate this so she can enjoy it herself – in the land where 18 year olds can imbibe! Truly delicious, Cheyanne!
      And – please do excuse me if I do tend to post an apple or pumpkin recipe early – I enjoy them year round and am a little bad in remembering the best times to post… maybe a couple of these peach strawberry rose floats would help? 🙂
      Happy Monday, friend XOXO

      Oh my! This is fabulous! Floats are one of my favorite ways to enjoy an adult beverage. This is going on the list for next weekend! This float and I have a date with the deck! BTW- not ready for anything remotely fall yet, I can’t turn my back on what is left of this fab summer, just not ready for it! Take care.

      I for sure eat and love on both apples and pumpkin YEAR round (I have some leftover pumpkin in a container in my fridge right now and I am NEVER without some apples) but I hear ya still. And also, you could bribe me to do ALL kinds of things with these gorgeous floats! Refreshing, boozy, gorgeous, fun and sophisticated all at the same time. I am in love! Pinned! Cheers to ALL the summer vibes still! XO

      Growing up my Mom loved Pink wine and the older I got the more I despised it. Rose has always been a joke to me, that is until last year, where Rose is now the cool hip thing to drink, it goes down easy, almost too easy if you ask me. I am currently on the Rose train and would love to add some peach and strawberry sorbet into the mix. I hate how media is rushing through the season. A few months ago I saw an article about fall fashion and threw up a little bit.

      Cheyanne!! I’m dying over these Rosé floats! I absolutely love Rosé. There’s a local winery that I frequently visit that has the best Rosé ever… like, I hoard that stuff! I’m totally making these this weekend, but I’m not sharing with anyone! 😉 Oh, and I’m with you on the fall nonsense… I’m sticking with summer for as long as possible!

      I hear you, Chey, and I’m with you here. I promise you won’t see anything apple/pumpkin until end of September from me. I haven’t eaten all my cherries, melons, and ice cream yet. Wait…does apple ice cream count?:) I do love the combo of sorbet and bubbly. But you know what? I haven’t had any boozy float this summer yet. OMG. I need to fix it right now (I hope my colleagues don’t mind)

      Girl, puh-LEASE teach me how to live in the moment! I want to enjoy summer but all I can think about is Fall. I blame Walmart–if they didn’t put out Halloween candy starting in June, I wouldn’t get so far ahead of myself! I think I need one (or five) of these gorgeous, summer-in-a-glass floats to keep my mind in the here and now. Have a great weekend, Chey!

      I haven’t even thought about pumpkin or apple yet…I’m not ready and I don’t know when I will be. Normally I won’t go there until September 1 at the earliest but for now I just can’t!! Let’s hold on to summer long and hard and this float will help. These flavors sound divine and it looks so refreshing! Cheers to one beautiful boozy dessert!

      I’m totally with ya on savoring summer, and enjoying fall when it’s fall! One of the best things about summer this year was the Rose float!! I love your version here with the peach and strawberry sorbet. Totally love the addition of the St. Germaine too. This will absolutely be on my cocktail list ASAP! Happy weekend!

      I’m all for apple season, but not until September. July is way too early! So let’s go drown ourselves in this gorgeous float. Simply stunning, Cheyanne! I love the peach and strawberry combo with rose. Unlike everyone else who has jumped on the rose bandwagon lately, it’s not my favorite, BUT I think I would love it in float form! Looks so refreshing and perfect for Thirsty Thursday! Pinned! Hope you have a great weekend!

      The last time I had a float I was about 10 and it involved vanilla ice cream and root beer. Now, I’m not saying it was bad, it wasn’t, but it wasn’t this grown up fancy version you have here! Fall happens to be my fave season, but I do love summer, especially the warmer weather and produce so I am in no rush for pumpkin or apple anything just yet. We’ll have our fill when the time comes, no doubt about it! No rush, right? Pinning this beauty! Have a lovely weekend, gf! XO
