Why This Recipe Works

Curious why this recipe is better than other virgin strawberry daiquiri mocktail recipes? Let me tell you!

  • Strawberries: Using a mixture of fresh and frozen strawberries eliminates the need for ice, which can water down the strawberry flavor.
  • Lime Juice: Freshly squeezed lime juice adds a brightness and tartness to the drink that is far better than bottled lime juice.
  • Rum Extract: Simulate the flavor of an alcoholic daiquiri by adding a small amount of rum extract. This step is optional.

Expert Tips

  • Don't let the frozen berries defrost, or the drink won't be as thick and icy.
  • Make your own simple syrup. Dissolve 1 cup of sugar (200g) and 1 cup of water (236 ml) in a saucepan set over medium-high heat.  Chill before using.  It will keep for 1 week in the fridge.
  • Squeeze your own lime juice.  The bottled kind doesn't taste as good.
  • Microwave the limes briefly to soften them before juicing.
  • Make this ahead by pouring the drink into freezer-safe container.  Let it thaw for 30-45 minutes, stir until slushy, then serve.

Ingredients
 

  • 4 cups frozen strawberries, 470g
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
  • 1 cup simple syrup, chilled
  • ¾ cup freshly squeezed lime juice
  • ½ teaspoon rum extract
  • 1 fresh lime, thinly sliced (for garnish)

Equipment

  • citrus press
  • blender
  • hurricane glasses

Instructions

  • Rinse, hull, and slice the strawberries until you have 1 cup (136g).  Squeeze the fresh lime juice and slice a fresh lime for the garnish.
  • Pull out the frozen strawberries from the freezer and let them thaw just for a minute or two.
  • Place the fresh strawberries, simple syrup, lime juice, and rum extract in a blender and blend until very smooth, then gradually blend in the frozen strawberries until no chunks remain.
  • Pour the virgin daiquiri into hurricane glasses and garnish the rims with fresh lime and strawberry slices.  Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use fresh and frozen strawberries for the best flavor and texture in this virgin daiquiri.
  • Adjust the amount of simple syrup, lime juice, and rum extract to taste.  You might need to add more simple syrup if the berries aren't as sweet.
  • Make your own simple syrup by dissolving 1 cup of sugar in 1 cup of water in a saucepan over medium-high heat.  Chill in the fridge until cool.  Store in the fridge for up to 1 week.
  • Squeeze your own lime juice with a citrus press for the best flavor.  Warm the limes in the microwave to help them yield the most juice.
  • Make the drink ahead of time and freeze it.  Take it out of the freezer about 30-45 minutes ahead of time and break it up with a fork until slushy, then serve.

    For Diabetics who have given up their daiquiris because of the sugar counts, the recipe for the simple syrup is

    1 cup distilled Water
    1/2 cup of your sweetener of choice

    And then (because this stuff is insanely sweet)
    Use 1/2 cup of it instead of the full cup of simple syrup.

    I am just now trying this recipe, and all of my stuff melted, but! I had to put the full cup in and let's just say 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

      If 1 cup of the diabetic-friendly simple syrup is too much, you can always try 2/3 cup or another smaller amount. This recipe is only guaranteed to work when it's made exactly as written in the recipe card, but feel free to make variations if you wish. Thanks for sharing your diabetic tips, Kirby!
