Virgin Strawberry Daiquiri
A crisp, slushy-style virgin daiquiri built with frozen strawberries, white verjus, fresh lime juice, and a lime-infused simple syrup. Bright, tart, and refreshingly tight — all the structure of a real daiquiri, without the alcohol.

Directions
- 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. - 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. - 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. - 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.
