Make an alcohol-free version of a traditional strawberry daiquiri. This Strawberry Daiquiri Mocktail is incredibly refreshing and bursting with strawberry flavor. Without the booze!
Strawberry daiquiris are blended drinks, so you don't need to buy expensive fake liquors to get the texture and ratios of this drink right.
The mocktail version of a strawberry daiquiri is like a fancy strawberry smoothie. But it still has the flavors of an alcoholic beverage thanks to a bit of tablespoon of molasses.
Why molasses?
The America's Test Kitchen version of alcohol-free rum uses molasses as one of the primary flavors to imitate rum. And instead of going through an entire process to make a fake rum, we can just add some molasses to help create the rum flavor.
Step 1. Add all the ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth. Serve with a garnish of fresh mint.
No blender? If you have a food processor or immersion blender you can still make this recipe work. Let the strawberries thaw until they are fairly soft but still slightly frozen.
If using a food processor, follow the directions as listed, using the food processor instead.
For an immersion blender, place the strawberries in a large bowl and use the immersion blender to puree the fruit. Then add in the remaining ingredients and mix.
By the glass: pour the strawberry mixture into a glass then stir in 1.5oz of rum.
For the whole batch: add 6oz of rum to the blender before blending.
If you double or triple this recipe, you may have some left over.
This mocktail freezes very well, just like a smoothie! Simply place it in a freezer-safe container (I use a zip top bag) and freeze.
To thaw, defrost in the microwave or let the mixture sit out at room temperature for a few minutes. Then place in the blender and blend until the mixture is a drinkable texture.
Thank you God for this mocktail. Thank you for giving us the freedom to honor our bodies with this non-alcoholic drink. Amen.
