What is a Frozen Daiquiri Made of?
A frozen Daiquiri is typically made with rum, fruit, lime juice and simple syrup to sweeten it. The Daiquiri can be made with any rum (white rum, spiced rum, flavored rum dark rum or light rum). The fruit that is added in will determine the overall flavor of the daiquiri. The most popular Daiquiri flavor is the strawberry daiquiri.
The Copabanana daiquiri uses spiced rum with bananas and raspberries for the fruit flavors. The flavors of the spiced rum mixed with fresh lime juice and the sweet fruits make this drink delicious.
How much Alcohol is in a Frozen Daiquiri?
A typical Daiquiri contains between 1.5 oz to 2 oz of rum. This is the only alcohol a daiquiri contains. The rest of the ingredients are fruit (fresh or frozen) simple syrup, and lime juice.
We made the Copabanana drink with 2 oz of captain morgan spiced rum. The spiced rum is 35% ABV (alcohol by volume). If this drink is too strong for you, or you would prefer a lighter rum flavor, use 1.5 oz instead of 2 oz.
What is the difference between a frozen margarita and a frozen daiquiri?
Frozen Margaritas and Frozen Daiquiri’s are two separate drinks. The frozen margarita is made with two alcohols tequila and triple sec. The daiquiri is only made with one alcohol, rum. The drinks are made to taste very different. The margarita has a subtle hint of tequila and sweet and tangy fruit. The daiquiri has a rum taste that is married perfectly with the fresh lime juice and fruit.
This refreshing delicious alcoholic fruity drink is named for the Famous CopaCabana Nightclub. The spirit of this drink is a gorgeous and elegant party sipper.
The Copacabana nightclub hosted some awesome talents in it’s day. Sammy Davis Jr. and the Supremes played there. And so many more.
Imagine yourself and your bestie all dressed up and listening to some of the best talents in the history of song and dance. All the while sipping on this beautiful drink.
This is the perfect alcoholic sipper drink for a night at the club. It’s so pretty and sweet with a bit of a kick to get you feeling the party.
Better yet, make a pitcher of the Copobanana Daiquiri for your friends and bring the party home. Music, rum cocktails and friends. What a night.
