Strawberry Daiquiri

The third strawberry recipe is one for the adults, though a version could be made for the younger ones by omitting the rum. I looked at several recipes before just having a go to see what would work. To get the sugar to dissolve, I used icing sugar. To ensure it is gluten-free, make sure to check that if you are using an icing mixture, that the starch is corn cornstarch and not wheat cornstarch.

Ingredients

100 g ice cubes

1 punnet (250 g) strawberries (cut up)

100 g rum

20 g lime juice

36 g icing sugar/mixture (adjust to your own taste)

Method

1. Add to a blender or thermocooker and blend until mixed. For the Bellini I think I did speed 10 for 10 seconds. Repeat if needed.

Tips

For an alcohol-free version you could use rum essence, or just omit and use some soda water or lemonade (but omit the added sugar). As always, please drink responsibly.
