Frozen Fruit Bar Strawberry Daiquiri
This frozen strawberry daiquiri recipe makes for a refreshing cocktail after a long, hot summer day. It is made with frozen fruit bars and I even included a kid-friendly version!

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.

- 2 Fruttare frozen strawberry fruit bars (or any flavor of your choice)

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 😀
