Strawberry Daiquiri with Flavored N₂O – Recipe
Infusing strawberry daiquiris with flavored nitrous oxide (N₂O) creates a creamy, frothy twist on this classic cocktail, adding a deliciously unique texture and intensified flavor. Here’s a simple recipe that incorporates flavored N₂O in your strawberry daiquiri.
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled (or use frozen for a thicker texture)
- 2 oz white rum
- 1 oz lime juice, freshly squeezed
- 1 oz simple syrup (adjust to taste)
- Ice cubes or crushed ice
- Flavored N₂O cream charger (like strawberry, lime, or mint flavor)
Equipment
- N₂O cream whipper (to charge the infusion with flavored N₂O)
- Blender
Instructions
1. Prepare the Base Daiquiri
- In a blender, combine the fresh or frozen strawberries, rum, lime juice, simple syrup, and ice.
- Blend until smooth and creamy.
2. Infuse with Flavored N₂O
- Pour the daiquiri mixture into a cream whipper, filling it only about halfway (leave room for the N₂O expansion).
- Charge the whipper with a flavored N₂O cream charger, following the manufacturer’s instructions. Shake well to incorporate the N₂O and create a creamy, foamy texture.
3. Serve and Garnish
- Release the strawberry daiquiri directly into a chilled glass. It should have a light, airy texture.
- Garnish with a fresh strawberry slice or a lime wedge.
Tips for Best Results
- Chill the Ingredients and Glassware: Cold ingredients and glassware enhance the texture and keep the drink refreshing.
- Experiment with Flavors: Try different flavored N₂O chargers, like mint or lime, to add complexity.
