Happy Thirsty Thursday!!
I have a particularly delicious cocktail for you today. In fact as I am writing this and thinking about it, my mouth is puckering and salivating! This drink is the best damn thing I have had in a while. It is so sweet and tart and tropical (which is great for pretending while we spend “Spring Break” in gray rainy Seattle.)
But amazingly enough, there is not a bit of added sugar!
I sliced up fresh sweet strawberries and peeled and pitted a ripe mango (it was extra sweet!) Then I added some freshly squeezed lime juice, coconut water and RUM!!! It truly blends into a really finely frozen concoction that is just delicious.
I feel like these would make for one fun party! You could certainly get into trouble if you had a few of these…
But I happen to know that they are also really good sans booze- as my kids demanded (quite nicely) that they get to have daiquiris too. So if you have a hot summer day- this would also make for a nice (no sugar added) dessert for the kids (or grownups).
- 2 cups frozen strawberries
- 1 ½ cup frozen mango chunks
- 2 cups ice cubes
- ⅓ cup fresh lime juice
- ½ cup coconut water
- ½ cup dark rum
- Add all of the ingredients to the jar of a blender and puree on high until really smooth. Split between 4 glasses and garnish with a fresh lime slice.

Heather! These look so refreshing! I love the tiny flower garnishes too! Can’t wait to make these!
Love that there’s no added sugar in this gorgeous cocktail!
Thanks Marla- and they truly did not even need it- they were so good as is!
This is one gorgeous daiquiri! I can’t wait to try this daiquiri soon!
