Strawberry Cream Rum Cocktail
Mariano
Strawberries & Cream with a rum twist. Sweet, silky, and hits just right.
- 60 ml Rum.
- 30 ml Homemade strawberry syrup.
- 30 ml whipped cream.
- A few drops of lime juice.
Strawberry syrup: Quarter the strawberries and add plenty of sugar so that they are all well coated when mixed. Let it sit for 6 hours in the refrigerator.
Strain and set aside the resulting syrup.
Cocktail: Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice. Add the rum, strawberry syrup, lime and cream.
Shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds (or blend if you want a frozen, creamy slushie-like drink).
Serve in a chilled glass, straining out the ice if you prefer it on the rocks, or simply serve it with crushed ice.
Garnish with a strawberry if you have one left, or leave it plain—it's delicious as is.
Enjoy!
