A frosty frozen strawberry drink in a chilled glass with a smooth blended texture, topped with a strawberry and a lime wedge.
A frozen strawberry daiquiri is sweet, tangy, and the ultimate warm-weather treat. This frozen strawberry daiquiri blends up thick and icy with real strawberries and fresh lime. It’s better than a restaurant version, and you can make it in minutes with a blender.
Introduction
The standout trick is using frozen strawberries and plenty of ice for that thick, slushy texture. Fresh lime juice keeps the flavor bright instead of overly sweet. If it looks too thick, add a tiny splash of liquid and blend again.
This is a fan-favorite for backyard hangs, brunch, and summer parties.
