Frozen Key Lime Daiquiri

Frozen Key Lime Daiquiri

We left for our Labor Day weekend getaway thinking we'd be drinking our beloved frozen peach daiquiris. But, we still had a full bottle of Midori on hand and were still freshly enamored with our recent key lime martini recipe, so we were in the mood to experiment. It took a few tries to come up with this delicious and cool blend of lime and melon but the result was well worth it. Cheers!

For 2 Servings:
4 oz. Rum
4 oz. Midori
2 oz. Lime juice
2 oz. Pineapple juice
1 oz. Simple syrup

Combine all the ingredients with about 10 ice cubes in a blender and puree until smooth. Serve in a chilled daiquiri glass.

    Hummm, I have a lime tree in my back yard which is still producing a lot of fruit. This could be something for the weekend! Great job and thanks for posting.

    This looks like the perfect drink to end summer with - well - we're still experiencing high temps so this is something I could drink throughout September and into October. Love it!

    Lime juice and key lime juice are two totally different things... title is key lime, yet there's no key lime in it??? Hmm...
