I got so excited about the last Rum drink that I thought, "why not post another?" Rum is such a mellow type of liquor. I feel like it goes well with a bit of sun and a place to sit! This Daiquiri is a classic rum cocktail where the main ingredient is rum, fruit and sugar.
Ingredients
· 1 large lime, juiced (about 3 tbsp)
· 1 shot dark or white rum (45 ml/ 1 1/2 fl oz)
· 3-6 drops liquid Stevia extract, powdered Swerve or Erythritol, to taste
· ice to taste
· lime for garnish
· Optional: few drops of lime, lemon or orange extract
Instructions
1. Before you start, place the glass in the freezer for about 20 minutes. This will keep your drink cool. Wash and juice the lime, add rum and a few drops of stevia.
2. You can optionally add a few drops of lime, lemon or orange extract, preferably PG-free.
3. Place the ice in the blender and pulse until crushed.
4. Remove the glass from the freezer, fill with the crushed ice and add the lime mixture. Serve immediately. Note: You can alternatively use a shaker. Just place everything inside, shake and strain the mixture into the cocktail glass.
