Cinco De Mayo is almost here, along with all the other fun summer holidays where a yummy red drink is in order, so it’s time to celebrate! And to make that celebration complete I’m making up Strawberry Daiquiri’s!! I really don’t drink alcohol very much so this is a non alcoholic version. You could always add a little rum to it if you want! 😉 (Ya see I actually had to Google what alcohol is normally used in daiquiri’s because I seriously had no idea!!) I first started making these about 4 or so years ago for Cinco De Mayo and my girls thought it was the greatest thing ever and the yearly tradition has just stuck! I love having this fun drink that I can also include the kids in every year.
Like I mentioned above because this drink is red it is perfect for all those summer patriotic barbecues too. This is quick, easy, and so delicious and refreshing! What’s not to love, right?!?! Here is what you need: Sprite (or other lemon lime soda), sugar, frozen strawberries, lemon juice, juice of 1 lime, and 1-1 1/2 cups crushed ice.
Add your ingredients to the blender and then blend it all up until smooth.
Serve immediately and pour into fun glasses, totally optional, but always a hit! Makes about 4 servings….or 6 small servings if you pour it into smaller glasses for the kids!
- 2 cups Sprite (or other lemon lime soda)
- ½ cup white sugar
- 20 frozen strawberries
- ¼ cup lemon juice (fresh or bottled)
- juice of one lime
- 1-1½ cups crushed ice
- To your blender add in the Sprite, sugar, frozen strawberries, lemon juice, juice of 1 lime (cut in 4 wedges to make it easier to squeeze and then squeeze it on in), and your crushed ice.
- Blend it all up until smooth.
- Pour into fun glasses and serve immediately.
