Don't you just get tempted by the look of this fruit?
There's more to strawberries than eating them raw and one of the way is making a sexy cocktail for a romantic evening.
I made this for a valentine's day dinner with my fiance and I am glad I did!
It's a simple cocktail and hardly takes 15 minutes to prepare. Usually prepared with white rum, I used vodka instead.
So here's the recipe to beat the heat..
STRAWBERRY DAIQUIRI
Ingredients:
- 12-14 fresh strawberries (you can use a squash, but I prefer fresh strawberries)
- 2 tablespoon Sugar
- Vodka
- Ginger (brings in a nice flavor)
- Mint leaves
- Salt
- Ice
Method:
In a blender, combine strawberries, sugar, 2 pinches of salt, a zest of ginger, 4-5 mint leaves.
Blend until smooth and you will get a concentrated pulp.
In a glass, add 30ml Vodka, two tablespoons of the pulp, required quantity of cold water and stir well.
Add 3-4 ice cubes and garnish with a mint leaf and a strawberry cut.
Note:
Makes 4-5 serves
You can add a drink like sprite instead of water if you want it frizzy.
Enjoy your evening!! :)
