Ninja Slushie Strawberry Daiquiri Recipe

Making a fantastic frozen drink at home is easier than you think. One hot afternoon, my blender broke right when I wanted a cold treat. I had to get creative.

I pulled out my Ninja Slushie machine and decided to try something new. The result was amazing! I created the perfect slushy drink right in my kitchen.

Now, I want to share my discovery with you. This Ninja Slushie Strawberry Daiquiri Recipe uses real fruit and simple steps. You do not need any store-bought mixes.

In just a few minutes, you can have a delicious, frosty drink that tastes like summer.

What Does Strawberry Daiquiri Taste Like

When you try a strawberry daiquiri, the first thing you notice is its fresh, fruity flavor. The strawberries give it natural sweetness, while the lime juice adds just the right touch of sourness.

The rum blends in smoothly, giving the drink a little warmth without covering up the fruit. When served frozen in a slushie style, it becomes light, icy, and very refreshing.

With the Ninja Slushie Strawberry Daiquiri Recipe, the texture is smooth and cool, almost like a fruity snow drink but with a tropical twist. You’ll taste sweetness, tang, and a little kick all in one sip.

It’s easy to see why this frozen cocktail is so popular at parties or even as a relaxing drink on a warm day.

Ninja Slushie Strawberry Daiquiri Ingredients

• Strawberries (250 grams): These are the main fruit. They give the drink its sweet flavor and pretty pink color. You can use fresh berries or berries you froze yourself. If you use frozen, you do not need to add ice. The green leaves on top are not used, so remember to cut them off.
• White Rum (75ml): White rum gives the classic daiquiri flavor without overpowering the fruit. Bacardi works great for this recipe. You can use any white or silver rum you prefer. For a non-alcoholic version, skip the rum completely or replace with coconut water for extra tropical flavor.
• Sugar (100 g) or Sweetener: This balances the tartness of the lime juice. Honey or agave syrup can be used instead of sugar for a natural option.
• Lime Juice (60 ml): This fresh juice adds a little bit of a sour kick. It makes the strawberry flavor taste even brighter. For the best taste, use juice from real limes. You can buy bottled lime juice if that is easier.
• Water (475ml): Plain water helps blend everything smoothly and creates the right consistency. You can replace some of the water with coconut water for a tropical twist, or use sparkling water for a fizzy version. Ice water works even better for extra coldness.

How To Make Ninja Slushie Strawberry Daiquiri

Step 1 | Prepare Your Strawberries

Start by washing your strawberries well under cold water. Remove the green leaves and stems from each berry. Cut off any bad spots you see. You want clean, fresh fruit for the best taste.

Weigh out 250 grams of your prepared strawberries and put them in a bowl. Frozen strawberries work great straight from the freezer without thawing.

Step 2 | Measure Sugar

Measure exactly 100 grams of sugar and put it in a separate bowl. The sugar will help sweeten your drink and balance out the sour lime juice.

Step 3 | Mix Liquid Ingredients

Measure 75ml of white rum and pour it into a large measuring cup or pitcher. Add 60ml of fresh lime juice to your rum. Roll your limes on the counter before cutting them to get more juice out.

Remove any seeds that fall in. Add 475ml of water to your rum and lime mixture. Stir everything together so the flavors start to mix.

Step 4 | Blend Everything

Get your regular blender ready. Put the liquid mixture in first, then add the sugar, and finally add your strawberries. Put the lid on tightly and blend on high speed for 30-45 seconds.

You want the strawberries completely broken down and the sugar fully mixed in.

Step 5 | Pour Into Ninja Slushie

Take the lid off your Ninja Slushie machine. Pour your blended mixture right into the container. The mixture should fill about half the container, which is perfect for making a good amount without overfilling.

Step 6 | Start the Machine

Put the lid back on your Ninja Slushie machine and make sure it’s locked in place properly. Turn the machine on and select the “frozen cocktail” setting.

The machine will do all the work now and takes about 15-20 minutes to reach the perfect slushy texture.

Step 7 | Wait and Serve

You’ll hear the machine working. Don’t open it during this time and let it do its job. The machine knows exactly when your daiquiri is ready. When it stops, your drink is done and ready to serve.

Recipe Perfection Tips

• Very Cold Drink: For the best slushie texture, make sure your water is very cold before you mix it in.
• Strain the Seeds: If you do not like strawberry seeds, you can pour the blended mixture through a fine mesh strainer before putting it in the slushie machine.
• Sweeten to Taste: Taste the mixture before you put it in the machine. If you want it sweeter, add a little more sugar and blend for a few more seconds.
• Stronger Flavor: For a stronger strawberry taste, you can use 300 grams of strawberries instead of 250.

How to Serve This Strawberry Daiquiri

This daiquiri is best served cold, right after blending, so the texture stays icy and refreshing. Pour into tall glasses and add a straw for easy sipping. A slice of lime on the rim or a fresh strawberry on top adds a nice touch.

For parties, you can prepare a larger batch and serve it in a pitcher with plenty of ice. Another great way is to serve it in smaller glasses as a welcome drink when guests arrive.

Make-Ahead and Storage

Make-Ahead: You can prepare the blended mix earlier in the day and keep it in the fridge. When it’s time to serve, just run it through the Ninja Slushie machine to refresh the icy texture.

How to Store: Leftover daiquiri can be kept in an airtight jar in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Stir before serving, as some liquid may settle.

Freezing Tips: For longer storage, pour leftovers into ice cube trays and freeze. When ready, blend the cubes with a splash of water or soda to bring the drink back to life.

Ninja Slushie Strawberry Daiquiri Recipe FAQs

1. Can I make this recipe larger for parties?

Absolutely! Double all ingredients to fill the entire slushie container. This makes about 6-8 servings depending on glass size.

For even bigger parties, you can make multiple batches. Just remember to clean the blender between batches if you’re making different flavors.

The slushie machine can handle a full container easily, and the larger batch actually stays at the right temperature longer during parties.

2. What should I do if my daiquiri turns out too thick or too thin?

For a thinner consistency, add more water gradually while the slushie machine is running. Start with just 50ml and see how it looks.

For thicker texture, add more frozen fruit or a few ice cubes to the blender before mixing.

The slushie machine works best when the container is about half full, so don’t worry if your mixture seems thin at first. The machine will thicken it during the cycle.

3. How to clean the Ninja Slushie machine after use?

Remove leftover slushie and rinse the container with warm water. Use mild soap and a soft brush if needed. Dry it completely before storing.

4. What’s the best way to garnish this drink?

Classic garnishes include lime wedges, fresh strawberry slices, or even a sugar rim on the glass. For a fun summer touch, you can add paper umbrellas or mint sprigs.

Garnishes make the drink look festive and give it that party-ready vibe.
