This Daiquiri is easy to make in a blender and proves you don't need alcohol to enjoy yourself. It's a great way to use up extra strawberries during the peak season or simply treat yourself to a holiday treat. The cocktail is not too sweet, refreshing, and sure to please. Instead of rum, we added a splash of citrus soda. If you're looking to try the new trend of non-alcoholic rum, you can add a little, but the cocktail is delicious without it.

Ingredients:

• 2 cups fresh strawberries or 1 bag (280 g) frozen strawberries + 1 berry, halved, for serving
• 1 cup ice or lime ice cubes
• 3/4 cup citrus soda, such as Sprite or San Pellegrino
• 90 ml non-alcoholic rum, such as Lyre's White Cane Spirit
• 5 tablespoons light agave syrup
• 1/4 cup lime juice

  Lime ice:
  
  If you have limes or lemons that are about to spoil (or you just have a lot of them), juice them and freeze them in ice cube trays. A standard ice cube tray contains about 2 tablespoons (30 ml) of juice, making it easy to measure out into cocktails. This is a great way to prepare ahead and preserve precious juice.
