Summer is my favorite time of the year for many reasons. One reason is because I can lay out by the pool and enjoy a nice cold beverage. I’m thankful that my house has a pool that I can get in at any time and have a drink or two without rules (or judgment from others.) I usually enjoy drinks that are fruity, sugary and don’t taste like alcohol. Lame, I know. I feel like those are the best summer time drinks, the ones that make you feel like your feet should be in the sand and the ocean in front of you.
I was sent a bottle of Bacardi Light Strawberry Daiquiri to try and could not wait especially because all you have to do it pour it over ice. How easy is that? It’s perfect for when I’m trying to get out to the pool and don’t want to waste time making a drink with lots of ingredients. The first night I had my Strawberry Daiquiri, I enjoyed it over ice with dinner. It was amazing! Usually drinks that your “just pour over ice” always need some type of tweaking by adding lime, or sprite to make it taste right, but not with Bacardi strawberry Daiquiri.
When I found out that the Bacardi Daiquiri was only 95 calories per serving, I knew it was time for another drink. I decided to make my own Bacardi Light Frozen Strawberry Daiquiri. Words can not explain how delicious my drink was. It was one of those drinks that are kind of scary because you can’t taste any alcohol in it. I added a secret ingredient in my drink that made it the best strawberry daiquiri that I’ve ever had.
