Is anyone else obsessed with tomatoes right now? Every year when summer rolls around and tomatoes get sweet and delicious I try to eat all the tomatoes that I can get my hands on! When I was pregnant I ate at least three tomatoes a day with garlic salt and had to make myself stop so I wouldn't get a mouth ulcer! Lately, I have been putting tomatoes into everything like my Greek Chicken Pasta Salad, Panzanella Cantaloupe Caprese Skewers...and now even my cocktails! My tomato basil crush is going to have you loving tomatoes in a whole new way!
There are many reasons for today's cocktail being a daquiri. Maybe I'm getting sentimental about leaving Louisiana, maybe it's because the Super Bowl is Sunday, maybe it's because we are in full Mardi Gras swing around here, or perhaps it's because this daquiri is the perfect shade of light pink and would be so pretty on Valentine's Day. But whatever the reason, you are getting a daquiri today and it's pretty jam up (that means pretty amazing in my hubby's terms.) My spiced blood orange and coconut daquiri is perfect for a party and is the flavor combination is on point!
To be honest here, you could omit the alcohol and this would be a delicious daquiri turned smoothie that would be perfect as an afternoon pick me up or as part of your breakfast. But let's just add the alcohol here...it's kind of like a jazzed up creamsicle, adult style. And who doesn't love a creamsicle?
