If you have been reading my blog for a while now, you know that my husband and I recently bought a house and added on a really nice stamped concrete patio to the back of it last fall. I have been getting some good use out of it and have spent a lot of time out there this summer (more than I probably should!) and there’s nothing I love more than relaxing in a lounge chair in my very own backyard with an easy-to-make cocktail or some sort of frozen treat to cool off with (and to attract the bees – ha ha). I also like to include these frozen treats when I do my favorite thing of all time to do in the summer – outdoor picnics. Speaking of which, I haven’t had even ONE yet this year!
I bought these delicious, healthy Fruttare fruit bars for the first time last weekend and they are my new go-to snack for a lazy hot summer day. I picked up a few different kinds (strawberry, strawberry and milk, and banana and milk) this past weekend at Wegmans but they are available at many stores nationwide! I really think I’ve found my new favorite fruit bar. What I love most about them is that they have chunks of real fruit in them and also real fruit juice. They have a wide variety of flavors, including black cherry, which is next on my list to try. Some of the flavors that I bought even have real milk added to them for extra creaminess – they are like smoothies on a stick! You can eat these right out of the box or make fun drinks with them like I did (recipe below using the strawberry fruit bars).
I hope you enjoy these strawberry daiquiris as much as I did making them…and drinking them Be sure to check out the Fruttare website and their Facebook page for more information about their frozen fruit bars.

I simply love this idea.. we don´t have the same brand here but we have something similar and
I´m definitely giving this a try! Great recipe!
I am jealous that you have a Wegman’s. We are supposed to be getting one in another 1-2 years and I cannot wait. Strawberry daiquiris used to be my favorite cocktail and these look amazing!
Ashley, with a new stamped concrete deck and these gorgeous looking drinks – you must have an outdoor picnic!!! Invite me over
I’d love to see the patio and have one of these gorgeous drinks!!!
Sounds good to me! Perfect for a warm evening.
What a great idea to use these Fruttare bars in this daiquiri – which looks scrumptious!
How fun are these daiquiris! I haven’t made daiquiris in a longggg time. And now you have me wanting one!
Strawberry is one of my favorite flavors. We just picked some last weekend.
Fruttare fruit bars are so, so good! I love that you made a daiquiri with them!!!
Strawberry Daiquiri are my favorite summer drinks– I love your twist on it using fruitare!
What a great idea using the frozen fruit bars in this way! Love it.
These look simply perfect for summer patio sipping! I also love how you used those frozen fruit bars! YUM!
I LOVE this idea! I wish I saw it earlier! We were away on vacation and looked for a frozen mix to be able to make some drinks easily. The small market didn’t have any. This would have been wonderful! Pinning to remember for next time! Genius!
What a great way to use Fruttare! I think I would like this Strawberry Daiquiri better than any I have ever had.
Terrific idea!! I love that you included a kid friendly version. Thanks for sharing your recipe!!
What a great shortcut for making fruity margaritas… the possibilities are pretty much endless! Bookmarking this one for the weekend… we have friends coming over for a BBQ, and their kiddos will be thrilled to get “grownup” drinks (the fact that the adult ones have booze will be our little secret).
Great idea, Ashley! I’m all about the frozen beverages through the summer.
What a brilliant idea. I could almost taste one of these Strawberry Daiquiris right now.
Cool idea! That drink looks so refreshing and delicious!
What a convenient way to make a strawberry daiquiri! This is so clever — great looking recipe. Thanks!
What a fun and creative recipe! I love the sound of these daiquiris!
A drink that lasts longer – I am a big fan
