Directions
Cut a lime in half across the middle; cut a slice from one half for the garnish. Cut a slit through 1/2 of the lime slice and the bottom half of a strawberry and fit them onto the rim of a glass; set aside.
Juice the larger half of lime (1 Tbsp.) directly into the blender; add contents of Escapes cup, rum and ice to a blender. Blend on high until smooth, about 30 seconds. Pour into glass and enjoy. Cheers!
TIPS:
- Chill the Escapes cups in the refrigerator at least 2 hours before making cocktails.
- Strawberry Twist: Add 2 fresh strawberries to the blender for a pinker daquiri with more strawberry flavor
- To squeeze the most juice from the lime: Before cutting the lime, place it on the counter; press and roll back and forth with the heel of your hand until it softens slightly. Then cut and use a citrus reamer or citrus press to extract the juice.
