Thanks to everyone that popped by to say congrats yesterday! Sorry for not replying but I have been celebrating very hard. Tonight I discovered frozés and my life is better for it.

What's a froze? I think this is important information, given what the weather is going to do next week. Unrelated but maybe there is a connexion, I have just tipped over my glass of wine into my spectacles case. Bugger.

A cross between rose and a slushie! I bought it thinking that it wouldn’t be very strong and would be more for the looks, but god damn is it boozy.

They sell them at The Mitcham Social, if you’re ever out my way.

Fun fact, alcohol freezes at something like -114 Celsius - so drinking the liquid from a frozen wine drink leaves most of the water in the cup and a high alcohol content liquid in your tummy.

Another fun fact - this method is used to make those super yummy German dessert wines, aka eiswein (icewine).
