Strawberry Pineapple Daiquiri (Printable)

A vibrant frozen blend of strawberry and pineapple, ideal for summer enjoyment.

# What You Need:

→ Fruit

01 - 2 cups fresh or frozen strawberries, hulled
02 - 1 cup fresh or frozen pineapple chunks

→ Liquids

03 - 1 cup white rum
04 - 1/2 cup fresh lime juice, approximately 4 limes
05 - 1/2 cup simple syrup
06 - 1/2 cup water

→ Optional

07 - 1 tablespoon agave syrup or honey for additional sweetness

# How-To Steps:

01 - In a blender, combine strawberries, pineapple, rum, lime juice, simple syrup, and water. Blend until completely smooth. Taste and add additional sweetener as desired.
02 - Pour the blended mixture evenly into 6 resealable freezer-safe pouches or sturdy zip-top bags, filling each approximately two-thirds full. Seal tightly, pressing out excess air.
03 - Lay the pouches flat in the freezer and freeze for at least 6 hours, or until completely solid.
04 - Remove a pouch from the freezer. Gently knead or run under warm water for a few seconds to soften. Pour into a glass or serve directly from the pouch with a straw.

# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • These freeze days ahead, so you can stop stress-making drinks and start actually relaxing when guests arrive.
  • One blender session handles everything, and cleanup is genuinely minimal.
  • The tropical brightness hits different when it's icy cold, tasting less boozy and more like summer in a glass.
02 -
  • Don't skip making your own simple syrup if you can help it, because it actually dissolves into the frozen mixture, whereas granulated sugar stays gritty no matter how long you freeze it.
  • The exact freeze time matters less than checking that the mixture is actually solid throughout, not just crusted on the outside with a slushy middle.
03 -
  • Freeze the pouches standing upright first, then lay them flat once they're partially solid, so the mixture distributes evenly and thaws smoothly.
  • Run the sealed pouch under warm water rather than microwaving, because heat can sometimes compromise the seal and you don't want rum leaking in the sink.
