The Strawberry Daiquiri applies the classic rum-lime-sugar sour to ripe strawberries, usually as a blended frozen drink. Rum keeps the structure, lime sharpens the fruit, and ice creates a slush texture suited to hot weather. Served in a stemmed or specialty glass, it is one of the most recognizable summer cocktail variations. Fresh or frozen berries both work when balanced carefully.

Bartender's Note
Taste for sweetness after blending; ripe strawberries need less syrup. Avoid over-diluting with too much ice.
