Strawberry Daiquiri – Cocktails, Mocktails and Spa Party Drinks

This beautiful and refreshing drink is a perfect substitute for a fancy alcoholic beverage at cocktail parties. For a tarter version, we like it with lime juice in place of the lemon juice.

Spa Index Kitchen Notes

We like the mint blended right in with the ice. Fresh, tart, little flecks of green. Delicious!
Crystalline Fructose is produced from corn, but should never be confused with high fructose corn syrup (HFCS), which is highly processed with varying amounts of glucose and fructose.  
Fructose is the sweetest of all nutritive sweeteners, ranging from 1.2 to 1.75 times sweeter than table sugar -- so use sparingly.  You can always add more, but you can't take it away, so add a bit at a time until you are used to its sweetness profile.
Of the three sugars (sucrose, glucose and fructose), fructose has the sweetest taste but least impact on your blood sugar.  The customary substitute is 2/3 cup of fructose crystals for every 1 cup of sugar called for, in a recipe.

One thought on “Strawberry Daiquiri – Cocktails, Mocktails and Spa Party Drinks

  1. Wanda C says:

    I thought 4 teaspoons of rum was too much for our tastes. The extracts help, but doesn’t make up for “real rum” so add just a little bit as you go.
