FROZEN STRAWBERRY DAIQUIRI MIX 
Strawberry Daiquiri Mix:

2 c. granulated sugar
1/3 c. lime juice (2 medium limes)
1/4 c. water
1 qt. fresh strawberries, washed and hulled

Combine sugar, lime juice and water in bowl. Stir to mix, and then let stand until sugar is almost completely dissolved, about 15 minutes (mixture will be thick).

In blender jar or food processor, combine the sugar mixture with the berries. Blend until smooth. Pack into half-pint, pint, or quart-size freezer containers and freeze. Or, pour the mixture into ice cube trays and freeze until firm, unmold and pack into resealable freezer bags. The mixture will become solid with the consistency of a very firm sherbet, so you'll be able to scoop portions from the main batch, then reseal the mixture.

Strawberry Daiquiri Drink:

3 tbsp. light or dark rum
1/4 c. frozen strawberry daiquiri mix or 2 average-sized cubes that have been frozen in ice-cube trays
3/4 c. ice cubes (approx. 7-8 average sized cubes)

In blender jar, combine rum, daiquiri mix or cubes and ice cubes. Blend until smooth. Most blender jars can handle up to 4 servings.

Mango Strawberry Daiquiri: Add up to 1 ripe, cut up mango to the blender when making a batch of strawberry daiquiris as described previously (up to 4 servings).

Note: For a nonalcoholic frozen drink, replace the rum with unsweetened pineapple juice.
