Vacation is looing for this gal and I am thinking sweet treats and cocktails. Is there anything more quintessential vacation mode than tasting a Frozen Strawberry Daiquiri? I don’t think so except maybe a pina colada or margarita lol.
Heading out on our cruise and you can bet this one is on the list of Yes Please!
Frozen Strawberry Daiquiri
A daiquiri is a type of cocktail that blends rum, citrus juice, and sugar. Daiquiris can be served chilled, over ice, or frozen. There are two more traditional flavours Lime and strawberry. I took a straw poll and believe it or not most people favour the strawberry. Please don’t tell but I am a lime gal so that is my number one choice.
All that aside I am never one to turn down a great cocktail lol.
Ever tried to make a strawberry daiquiri recipe at home? There’s no need to buy store-bought daiquiri mix, seriously a homemade strawberry daiquiri with real frozen strawberries tastes so much better than a mix from the store! All you need are a few ingredients, a blender, and 5 minutes to whip up this classic drink. Ready to get started?
What Rum is Best for a Daiquiri?
A white rum is best for strawberry daiquiris.
The sweet, slightly tangy flavor of strawberry is accented by the sweetness of a white rum. You can actually try a light golden rum or even a coconut one. However, a white rum is guaranteed to make a great strawberry daiquiri every time.
What about the Simple Syrup?
You can actually purchase simple syrup if you prefer or make your own. Honestly we make our own in many flavours, classic, Brown sugar, the possibilities are endless.
Want the recipe? Grab some sugar, water and a pot. The sugar and water are added to a small saucepan over medium heat. · Stir until sugar is dissolved. · Let cool, then pour into a glass jar and seal tightly with a lid.
