Method
Prepare Your Ingredients:
Peel the ripe bananas and cut them into slices. Ripe bananas are crucial for sweetness, so choose ones with a few brown spots.
Blend the Ingredients:
In a blender, combine the banana slices, white rum, fresh lime juice, simple syrup, and ice.
Blend on high until smooth and creamy. You might need to stop and scrape down the sides if any ingredients get stuck.
Taste and Adjust:
Taste your mixture. If it’s too sweet, add a bit more lime juice. If you prefer it sweeter, add more simple syrup. Adjust based on your taste preferences.
Serve:
Pour the Banana Daiquiri into chilled cocktail glasses. For a little flair, garnish with a mint leaf or a slice of banana on the rim of the glass.
Enjoy!
Sip and enjoy your refreshing Banana Daiquiri!
Variations
Frozen Banana Daiquiri: Use frozen bananas instead of fresh for a thicker texture. This variation is especially refreshing on hot days.
Vegan Option: The original recipe is vegan, but if you want to substitute the simple syrup, consider agave syrup or coconut sugar dissolved in a bit of water.
Berry Twist: Add a handful of frozen strawberries or blueberries to the mix for a fruity twist that adds a beautiful color!
