How to Make a Strawberry Daiquiri

Ice Tongs (optional)
Be hygienic!
Hawthorn Strainer
Place on the top of the Boston Shaker to remove large objects such as ice cubes
Measuring Jigger
Ideally, a jigger should have a 25ml and 50ml measuring cup
Pour Spouts (optional)
Place in the top of your spirit bottles to ensure an even and clean pour
ingredients
- 60ml Light Rum

Method
First muddle the strawberries in the base of the Boston Shaker. Now add the other ingredients. Fill the glass with cubed ice.
Place the tin over the top and gently pat with your hand to form a tight seal. Shake hard for 10 seconds
