The Rose Tattoo: A Frozen Strawberry Daiquiri Recipe

Looking for a frozen strawberry daiquiri recipe that stands out from the rest? Forget the store-bought frozen strawberry daiquiri mix and try the Rose Tattoo. This unique and refreshing frozen daiquiri was created by renowned bartender Abigail Gullo. It elevates the classic rum cocktail with a twist of red wine and unique ingredients like El Guapo™ Rose Cordial and Allspice Liqueur. This recipe shows you how to make a delicious, blended daiquiri that's perfect for a hot summer day.

Why This Isn't Your Average Strawberry Daiquiri

While most daiquiris rely on simple syrup, the Rose Tattoo uses El Guapo™ Rose Cordial to add a complex, floral sweetness that pairs beautifully with the strawberries. The addition of red wine deepens the flavor profile, and the hint of Allspice Liqueur gives it a warm, spiced note. It's a sophisticated take on a classic.
