A mint frozen daiquiri combines light rum, fresh lime juice, simple syrup and muddled mint leaves, blended with ice into a smooth, herbaceous cocktail. The fresh mint transforms a classic daiquiri into a cooling, garden-forward drink.

Fresh mint is central to the flavor. If unavailable, you can substitute 1/4 oz crème de menthe or 2–3 drops mint extract, though the taste will be different.
Light (white) rum is traditional and recommended. Avoid dark or spiced rum, which will overpower the mint and lime balance.
Use fresh ice cubes rather than crushed ice, and blend just until smooth. Over-blending melts the ice too quickly.
No. Freeze components separately, then blend fresh. Frozen daiquiris separate and lose texture if stored blended.
Gently press mint leaves against the side of your blender or pitcher to release oils, rather than crushing them hard.
