Lime-Infused Simple Syrup

• ½ cup (120 ml) water


• ½ cup (100 g) white sugar


• Peel of 1 lime (green part only, no white pith)

•  ½–4 cups frozen strawberries


• 160 ml white verjus (for wine-like acidity and structure) — this one on Amazon


• 80 ml fresh lime juice


• 60–80 ml lime-infused simple syrup, to taste


• 1½–2 cups ice

To Serve 

•  ½ cup (75 g) reserved dry dredge mix

Directions

  1. Make the Lime-Infused Syrup
    In a small saucepan, combine the water and sugar and heat gently, stirring just until the sugar fully dissolves; do not boil. Remove from heat, add the lime peel, and let steep for 10–15 minutes until aromatic, then strain out the peel and let the syrup cool completely.
  2. Blend the Daiquiri
    Add the frozen strawberries, white verjus, fresh lime juice, 60 ml of the cooled syrup, and the ice to a high-speed blender, then blend until thick, smooth, and slushy.
  3. Adjust
    Taste and adjust the balance if needed — add more syrup for sweetness, more lime juice for sharpness, or more ice for a thicker, colder texture.
  4. Serve
    Pour into chilled glasses and garnish with optional lime slices and whole strawberries pressed against the glass; serve immediately while fully frozen and vibrant.

*Notes

  • Frozen strawberries must be fully ripe — underripe fruit kills balance.
  • Verjus is non-negotiable; it replaces alcohol structure and acidity.
  • Keep the syrup restrained — this is a daiquiri, not strawberry ice cream.
  • Texture matters: thick, cold, and slushy, never watery.
  • Best consumed immediately.
