Strawberry & Cream Daiquiri

I'm back, after a lovely Easter break with family.  It's been slow on the cocktail scene, but my excuse is that it was Good Friday and I couldn't stomach a seafood cocktail! 

 

My baby sister and her family came to visit over Easter to join in on our annual family camping trip.  And because Mr Thermomix Me A Drink believes that camping should be a survival activity, complete with dug in latrines and rations, my thermomix was not allowed to come. 

 

So as soon as we arrived home, and so as not to neglect my cocktail duties, I created this treat for my sister who has always been known as Strawberry Shortcake amongst our family.  And while this isn't quite cake, it is definitely strawberry and cream flavoured.

 

 

 

Ingredients 

500gm ice

200gm frozen strawberries

100gm strawberry syrup *

4 shots Whipped Cream flavoured Vodka

Liquid sweetener to taste

100gm pouring cream

 

Method

Add ice, strawberries, syrup and vodka to your TM bowl

Blitz on speed 10 for up to 1 minute, helping the mixture with your TM Spatula.

Taste the mixture for sweetness and add some liquid sweetener to break through any tartness.

Add cream and mix on speed 5 for 10 seconds.

Serve in a pretty glass and garnish with a lolly!

 

 

This would be sooooo good as ice cream, the vodka would keep it soft and scoopable, if you can resist the temptation to lick the bowl!

 

 I hope you've had a relaxing Easter break. Stay classy!
