Watermelon Daiquiri

"This would be lovely on a summer day, but we enjoyed it inside, on a windy March night. You could also make this refreshing drink with strawberries."

  1. This is FABULOUS! I loved it! So did my boyfriend -how refreshing! I also made it nada colada style by adding pink lemonade instead of rum - for the kids - they came out divine! We loved those for after working in the yard! Thank you so much - what a treat!
     
  2. This was a nice and refreshing cocktail on a scorching hot day. It was bit sweet for me and I would cut the sugar by half next time. I would make this again even without the alcohol. Thanks for posting.
     
  3. Had everything on hand for this and was in the mood for a fun new drink. As written I found the lime overpowering. I used 2 oz of spiced rum (what I had) Luckily I like my drinks strong! lol The watermelon doesn't do much to mellow the alcohol. Next time I would half the lime, add a little more sugar, and maybe add a touch of mint. Thanks for the idea.
     
  4. Way too much alcohol for me; I used watermelon flavored Bacardi rum. I added an extra cup or more of watermelon and then blended it with 1.5 cups of crushed ice and it was much much better.
     
  5. Sorry to say, four people could not drink this. The only change I made was to double the recipe. I tryed adding more sugar, did not help.WE all like Daiquiri's. But guess not this recipe.

This is a picture of me and my husband in Portugal, climbing up above the clouds with our bikes. Right now we are travelling around the world on our bicycles, so I only pop onto Zaar occasionally, when internet connections and time allow me to. If I don't reply to a message about one of my recipes, now you know why! Our trip may take several years so if it's urgent, it's probably better for you to post in the forums ;) Good food is really important to me -- I am happy to pay extra for food that I feel is produced in a sustainable and ethical way and always try to eat using seasonal produce. When we were in the UK we rarely shopped at supermarkets, trying instead to favour small producers, although we were very lucky in that we lived in London and there was lots of choice. We also were fortunate enough to have a weekly organic veg box delivered to our door, filled with so many lovely vegetables for very little money. It really opened my horizons in terms of the variety of vegetables I eat. If you're in the UK, check out Riverford for a box supplier as they're amazing! When I'm not eating I love to take pictures and travel with my husband. <img src="http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/DUCHESS13/World%20Tour/ZWT2.gif">
