One of the best things about living in South Florida is being able to walk along the beach and experience all that it has to offer. Part of what South Florida has to offer is great weather, a great locations, and even better cocktails. There are new twists on old drinks all the time, but the great thing about having an oldie, but a goodie drink is that you always know that the drink is going to be fantastic. Anya, Jaimie, and myself decided to take a walk down by Riverfront and when we walked past Tarpon Bend we immediately wanted to go in. They play this different, but fun Caribbean type of music. We all decided to have some drinks and Anya decided on a Strawberry Daiquiri.
I must admit that I do like Strawberry Daiquiris also, but I was craving a different drink at the time. After tasting her Strawberry Daiquiri I definitely should have listened to her and gotten one. It is not only the taste of this drink, but the presentation is so fun. The shape of the glass is elegant, yet young and the distribution of the fruit on the rim of the glass is so cute. The difference between this Strawberry daiquiri and others is that it is made with real strawberries instead of frozen strawberries and you definitely notice the difference.
A Tarpon Bend Strawberry Daiquiri is made with:
two ounces of rum
one ounce of lime juice
six ice cubes
four strawberries
two tablespoons of sugar
Blend all together in blender until smooth.
I never thought that something as simple as using real strawberries instead of frozen strawberries would make such a huge difference, but it does. You have not had a perfect Strawberry Daiquiri until you have tried one at Tarpon Bend. Whenever you are down by Riverfront Fort Lauderdale, definitely stop in and try one of these fantastic drinks and I guarantee you will notice the difference in taste.
