My brother-in-law Paul brought me a bottle of rum back from Nicaragua, where he was touring with an orchestra, playing his horn. So I made some of it into a frozen strawberry banana daiquiri.
It’s one of the big secrets of having a domestic ice cream freezer – you can make great frozen drinks that are sure to be a smash hit at parties (although there wont be enough for more than a few guests). The only caveat is that there needs to enough non-alcohol content to make it semi-solid.
If you want to try one, here’s a recipe…
Kieran’s Frozen Strawberry Banana Daiquiri
Ingredients:
200 ml water
100 gm sugar
2 bananas
300 gm fresh strawberries
Juice of 1 lemon
300 ml rum
What to do:
1. Combine all of the ingredients except the rum and puree using a blender or food processor.
2. Transfer to a sauce pan and bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly.
3. Cool completely.
4. Stir in rum.
5. Transfer to a domestic ice cream freezer and run it until the daiquiri thickens. It will take much longer than a normal ice cream mix, and it wont freeze as solid.
Sláinte mheah!

So is that bottle missing 300 ml exactly?!!
Well, one does have to test these things!
Excellent idea. Time to break out the icecream freezer.
LOL @ tankeduptaco! I actually agree with you…there’s a lot more missing 🙂
