Ingredients
- 2 cups frozen peaches
- 2 oz white rum (or dark rum for a richer flavor)
- 1 oz peach schnapps (optional, for extra peachy flavor)
- 1 oz fresh lime juice
- 1 oz simple syrup or honey
- 1 cup ice cubes
- ½ cup cold water (or peach juice for added flavor)

Instructions
Step 1: Prepare Your Ingredients
Start by gathering all your ingredients. If you’re using fresh peaches instead of frozen, peel and slice them, then freeze for at least 2 hours before blending.
Step 2: Blend the Daiquiri
In a high-speed blender, add frozen peaches, rum, peach schnapps (if using), fresh lime juice, simple syrup (or honey), ice cubes, and water (or peach juice). Blend on high speed until smooth and slushy. If the consistency is too thick, add a bit more liquid to achieve the desired texture.
Step 3: Taste and Adjust
Taste the daiquiri and adjust sweetness or acidity if needed. Add more honey/simple syrup for a sweeter drink or more lime juice for extra tanginess.
Step 4: Serve and Garnish
Pour the blended peach daiquiri into cocktail glasses. Garnish with a fresh peach slice and a lime wedge. For an extra tropical feel, serve with a straw and a mini cocktail umbrella.
Step 5: Enjoy!
Serve immediately while cold and refreshing. Sip and savor the delightful combination of peach, lime, and rum flavors!
