This sugar-free frozen strawberry daiquiri can also be made without the rum for a summer drink for adults or kids. You can use frozen strawberries instead of the fresh and ice, but use a little less if you don't want the carb count to go up. Traditionally daiquiris are made with lime juice, but lemon juice still tastes great.

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup sliced strawberries (see note for measuring)
  • 1 Tablespoon lime juice
  • I jigger rum (1.5 oz)
  • Sweetener to taste (depends on how sweet the strawberries are)
  • Small handful of ice (not needed if berries are frozen)

Preparation:

Put in blender and push the button.

*Measuring note: In order to do a nutritional analysis, I decided to go with the sliced berries since there is less variability compared to when measuring whole berries. This is about 3/4 cup medium-sized whole berries. It is also 80 grams of berries.
