FAQs
Can I make this daiquiri without a blender?
While a blender is ideal for achieving the smooth, slushy texture, you could use a food processor or crush the ice manually and shake the ingredients vigorously. However, the texture won’t be as smooth.
What can I use if I don’t have simple syrup?
You can make simple syrup quickly by dissolving equal parts sugar and hot water, or substitute with honey or agave syrup, adjusting the amount to taste.
