Virgin Strawberry Daiquiri
An alcohol-free strawberry slush with lime and lemonade. Thick, bright and perfect for kids' parties.
- 5 min prep
- 2 drinks
- Tall glass or kids' cup
- Alcohol-free
Kids love this one, and adults sneak sips too. Lemonade takes the place of the rum, adding sweetness and tartness so the drink still has the punchy flavor of a real daiquiri.
Serve with a whipped-cream top and a fun straw and it becomes a party treat.

Tips for the best texture
- Lemon-lime soda can replace the lemonade for a fizzier flavor; add it last and pulse briefly.
- Too thick for little straws? Add a splash more lemonade.
Try a twist
Use half strawberries and half watermelon for a lighter summer slush.
Blender, frozen drink maker or slush machine?
These amounts are written for a standard countertop blender. In an ice-shaving frozen drink maker, put the ice in the hopper and the liquids and any fruit in the jar, then run a full cycle. In a home slush machine, which freezes the drink itself, leave out the ice, replace it with about 1 cup of cold water or juice, and pour the mixed liquid into the bowl.
