Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup (generous) ice cubes
1/3 cup frozen limeade concentrate
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1/4 cup amber Barbados rum
Additional ice cubes
2 lime wedges

  • Place additional ice cubes in 2 glasses. Pour daiquiri mixture ice. Garnish with lime wedges and serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
  • Make sure your limes are ripe and juicy. If they're not, your daiquiri will be sour.
