Description
🍓 Frozen Strawberry Daiquiri (Vodka-Based)
A frozen berry delight with a citrus twist and a vodka kick—perfect for patios, parties, or poolside lounging.
📝 Ingredients (Serves 1 large or 2 small cocktails):
-
1 oz vodka (use a clean, neutral vodka)
-
1 oz strawberry liqueur (like Bols or DeKuyper)
-
No liqueur? Use 1 oz triple sec or orange liqueur for a tangy twist.
-
-
¼ oz fresh lemon juice 🍋 (or lime juice for a daiquiri-like sour)
-
2 cups frozen strawberries 🍓
-
1 cup ice 🧊
-
Optional: Sugar for rimming
-
Optional garnish: Fresh strawberry, lemon wheel, or mint sprig
🍹 Instructions:
1. Optional Sugar Rim
-
Rub a lemon wedge around the rim of your glass.
-
Dip the rim in a shallow plate of granulated sugar for a sparkly, sweet finish.
2. Blend the Cocktail
In a blender, combine:
-
Vodka
-
Strawberry liqueur (or triple sec)
-
Lemon juice
-
Frozen strawberries
-
Ice
Blend until smooth and slushy. You want it thick but drinkable with a straw.
3. Serve It Up
-
Pour into a chilled margarita glass, coupe, or stemless wine glass.
-
For an extra aesthetic touch, layer a little strawberry puree at the bottom of the glass before pouring.
4. Garnish & Enjoy
-
Add a fresh strawberry on the rim or a lemon wheel for that perfect summer look.
-
Optional: top with a mint leaf or even a swirl of whipped cream for dessert vibes.

-
Sweeter version: Add ½ oz simple syrup or a drizzle of honey.
-
Sour boost: Add a splash more lemon or lime juice if you like it tangy.
-
Creamy version: Add a splash of coconut cream or vanilla yogurt.
-
Mocktail version: Replace vodka and liqueur with lemonade or berry-flavored soda.
