In the mood for a refreshing cocktail that is sweeter than others but still has a nice kick? That to me screams daiquiri! The wonderful thing about a daiquiri is that there are many different flavors that you can add to make it more of a drink that you love! For now, I am going to start with a simple, classic daiquiri recipe!
Many people enjoy a frozen daiquiri. The wonderful thing about that is you can easily adjust this recipe to make it frozen! Just put all of the ingredients into a blender and add ice! For that, I would recommend making a large batch of daiquiris because the ice will add more liquid and naturally make more. Plus, it’s just more fun that way!
