For Garnish:

• Sliced strawberries or kiwi (optional)
• Lime wedges (optional)

Method

Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients

Start by gathering all your ingredients. Make sure the strawberries are fresh and ripe for the best flavor. If you don’t have fresh ingredients, frozen fruits can work in a pinch.

Step 2: Blend the Ingredients

In a blender, combine the sliced strawberries, chopped kiwi, white rum, lime juice, simple syrup, and ice. Blend until smooth and creamy. If the mixture is too thick, you can add a splash of water to help it blend more easily.

Step 3: Taste and Adjust

After blending, taste your daiquiri. If it’s not sweet enough, add a little more simple syrup. If it’s too sweet, a bit more lime juice will balance it out. This flexibility is what makes the Strawberry Kiwi Daiquiri so adaptable to your taste!

Step 4: Serve

Pour the daiquiri into chilled cocktail glasses. For a decorative touch, you can garnish with slices of strawberry or kiwi on the rim of the glass and a lime wedge.

Step 5: Enjoy.

Serve immediately and enjoy the refreshing burst of flavors!

Variations

• Non-Alcoholic Version: Replace the white rum with sparkling water or coconut water for a refreshing mocktail.
• Fruit Variations: Try using other fruits like mango, pineapple, or even mixed berries instead of strawberry and kiwi for different flavor profiles.
• Frozen Version: Use frozen strawberries and kiwi instead of fresh for a slushy texture.

Tips and Substitutions

• Dietary Needs: For a lower-sugar option, use agave syrup instead of simple syrup or leave it out entirely if your fruits are sweet enough.
• Make it Vegan: Ensure the simple syrup is made with vegan-friendly sugar, as some sugars are processed with bone char.
• Kid-Friendly: This drink can be adapted for kids by simply leaving out the rum and adding more fruit juice.

Troubleshooting Tips

• Blending Issues: If the blender struggles, stop it, stir the ingredients, and then blend again.
