"The Bitches of Dade County" Strawberry Dacquiris


If there’s one tactic I’ve seen employed by Republican candidates during the last week, it’s righteous indignation followed by some sort of attack.  Newt used this tactic last Saturday to brush off John King who asked him about his marital issues.  Last night, Mitt got all huffy and demanded an apology from Newt for calling him “anti-immigrant” in his ads.  I thought they were going to start bitch-slapping one another, like an old-fashioned cat fight.

The bluster, once refreshing, is getting old.

Lighten up, and MAN up, dudes! 

“The Bitches of Dade County” Strawberry Daiquiris
Makes 6 servings, 8 oz. each

The secret to this classic Florida cocktail is the frozen strawberries--they take the place of ice cubes, resulting in a more flavorful drink that doesn’t get diluted.  Don't let the photo taken out on my deck dissuade you...you'll  feel like you're in Florida!  It's 40 degrees in Chicago...that's pretty good for January!  Downright tropical, some would say.  Wherever you are, enjoy!

1-1/2 cups light rum
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
½ of a 6 oz. can frozen limeade concentrate
1 lb. frozen unsweetened strawberries

Add rum, lime juice and limeade concentrate to blender container.  Add strawberries; blend until smooth.  Pour into glasses and serve with wide straws.

Tip:
Would you rather use the entire bottle (750 ml) of rum?  Just double the other ingredients and make 2 batches.  Anger?  What anger?
