Ingredients
  

  • Ingredients
  • Basic Ingredients
  • 2 cups frozen raspberries about 10 ounces
  • 1/2 cup white rum
  • 1/4 cup fresh lime juice about 2 limes
  • 2 tablespoons simple syrup or to taste
  • Ice cubes optional, for a thicker consistency
  • Variations
  • Berry Mix Daiquiri: Swap out raspberries for a mix of frozen berries like strawberries blueberries, or blackberries for a different flavor.
  • Non-Alcoholic Version: Omit the rum and replace it with sparkling water or lemonade for a refreshing mocktail.
  • Sweet and Sour: Add a splash of pineapple juice for a tropical twist.

Instructions
 

  • Method
  • Gather Ingredients: Start by collecting all your ingredients. Fresh lime juice is key, so if you’re using bottled, ensure it’s high-quality.
  • Blend the Base: In a blender, combine the frozen raspberries, white rum, fresh lime juice, and simple syrup. If you like your daiquiri thicker, add a handful of ice cubes.
  • Blend Until Smooth: Blend the mixture on high until it reaches a smooth and creamy consistency. You might need to stop and scrape down the sides of the blender to ensure everything is well combined.
  • Taste and Adjust: From my own personal experience, the balance of sweetness and tartness is essential. Taste your mixture and adjust the sweetness by adding more simple syrup if needed.
  • Serve: Pour the frozen daiquiri into chilled glasses. Garnish with fresh raspberries or a lime wheel for a fancy touch.
  • Enjoy!: Sip and savor your homemade frozen raspberry daiquiri while basking in the compliments from friends and family.
  • Tips and Substitutions
  • Frozen vs. Fresh: Frozen raspberries work best for this recipe as they provide a thicker texture and chill the drink perfectly. If using fresh raspberries, add extra ice to achieve the frozen effect.
  • Simple Syrup: To make simple syrup, combine equal parts water and sugar in a saucepan over low heat until the sugar dissolves. Allow it to cool before use.
  • Dietary Needs: For a lower-sugar option, use a sugar substitute or agave syrup instead of simple syrup.
