“MODERN FAMILY” and “FROZEN STRAWBERRY DAIQUIRI”

As perhaps the most iconic sitcom of the 2010s, Modern Family is a modern classic (pun unintended). And the reason we can’t get enough of the heartwarming characters of the Dunphy & Pritchett families is because they tend to bring out the best in each other, even in the toughest moments. This bond, for us, is represented best in the chilled Frozen Strawberry Daiquiri. With the tartness of the strawberry accentuating the sweeter flavor of the rum, the cocktail comes together in a medley of flavors that will definitely sweeten your next rewatch of the show. A drink with a story worthy of adding to your own list of Phil’s-osophy.

Ingredients:

  • 50 ML BACARDÍ CARTA BLANCA
  • 25 ML LIME JUICE
  • 25 ML SIMPLE SYRUP
  • 4 SLICED STRAWBERRIES
  • 1 CUP CRUSHED ICE

Method

  • Combine all the ingredients together, add a cup of crushed ice & blend a slushy consistency form.
  • Serve In individual highball glasses.

Ingredients:

  • 30 ML BACARDÍ RESERVA ANEJO CUATRO
  • 15 ML LIME JUICE
  • 40 ML CRANBERRY JUICE
  • 90 ML MARTINI PROSECCO
  • CHERRIES / STRAWBERRIES
