Method
Prepare Your Ingredients: Gather all your ingredients and equipment. This is an important step; having everything ready makes the process smoother.
Blend the Strawberries: In a blender, add the frozen strawberries and ice cubes. Blend on high until they’re completely smooth. You might need to stop and scrape down the sides a few times to ensure everything is mixed well.
Add the Liquids: Pour in the white rum, lime juice, and simple syrup. Blend again until everything is fully combined and the mixture is smooth and slushy. If you find the mix is too thick, add a little more lime juice or water to thin it out.
Taste and Adjust: From my own personal experience, tasting the mixture at this point is crucial. If you prefer it sweeter, add more simple syrup; if you want it tangier, squeeze in more lime juice.
Serve: Pour the daiquiri into chilled glasses. You can garnish with fresh strawberries and lime slices for an extra touch.
Enjoy: Grab a straw and enjoy this refreshing drink!
Variations
Frozen Mango Daiquiri: Substitute strawberries with frozen mango for a tropical twist.
Non-Alcoholic Version: Replace the rum with coconut water or just add more lime juice and syrup for a refreshing mocktail.
Different Fruits: Experiment with other frozen fruits like raspberries or blueberries for unique flavors.
