3 Keto Daiquiri Recipes

🍸 1️⃣ Classic Keto Daiquiri — The Pure & Simple Low-Carb Cocktail

This daiquiri honors the timeless Cuban classic — sharp, bright lime paired with sugar cane spirit. We simply swap out sugar for Keystone Pantry Allulose to keep carbs low while maintaining authentic taste.

Ingredients & Why They’re Used

• 2 oz light rum
  Rum is the soul of a daiquiri. A light or white rum brings clean, smooth, slightly sweet molasses notes without overpowering the lime. Rum is naturally zero-carb, making it perfect for keto cocktails.

• 1 oz fresh lime juice (~2g net carbs)
  Lime juice provides the essential tart acidity that defines a daiquiri. Fresh is key — bottled juice often contains additives and tastes flat. While limes have a small amount of carbs, their bright flavor is worth the minimal impact.

• 1 tbsp Keystone Pantry Allulose
  In a classic daiquiri, sugar balances lime’s tartness. Allulose does this beautifully — it dissolves like sugar and gives that clean, neutral sweetness, but with no impact on blood sugar or net carbs.

• Ice
  Essential for chilling the drink and slightly diluting it as it’s shaken, rounding the flavors.

• Optional: A drop of orange extract
  Traditional daiquiris sometimes have subtle citrus complexity — orange extract gives this without adding sugar.

Why it works:

This daiquiri is crisp, clean, and refreshing — exactly what a good daiquiri should be — with keto-friendly sweetness that won’t crystallize or leave an aftertaste.

🍓 2️⃣ Keto Strawberry Daiquiri (Frozen) — Sweet, Slushy, and Low-Carb

We reimagine the sugary frozen daiquiris you’d get at a beach bar — but in a way that lets you enjoy it guilt-free.

Ingredients & Why They’re Used

• 2 oz light rum
  Again, the backbone of the drink. Light rum pairs beautifully with fruit without competing for attention.

• 1 oz fresh lime juice (~2g net carbs)
  Lime keeps the drink bright and cuts through the natural sweetness of strawberry.

• 3 medium strawberries (~1.5g net carbs)
  Strawberries bring natural fruitiness, color, and aroma. They’re one of the lowest-carb berries, so you can enjoy their flavor without blowing your carb budget. If you want ultra-low carb, you can swap for a natural strawberry extract — no carbs, but lots of flavor.

• 1 tbsp Keystone Pantry Allulose
  Enhances the natural sweetness of the strawberries and balances lime’s tartness. Allulose’s clean profile works beautifully in frozen drinks because it prevents iciness that sometimes happens with other keto sweeteners.

• 3/4 cup ice
  Ice gives the drink its frozen, slushy texture — essential for that “vacation-in-a-glass” feel.

• Optional: Few fresh mint leaves
  Adds a layer of cooling herbal freshness that pairs wonderfully with strawberry.

Why it works:

This daiquiri is fruity and fun — the texture is smooth, not gritty, and the flavors stay bright without being cloying.

🥥 3️⃣ Coconut Lime Daiquiri — A Creamy, Tropical Low-Carb Escape

This one’s for coconut lovers — no sugary cream of coconut needed. We use coconut extract or unsweetened coconut milk for that tropical flavor, and allulose for clean sweetness.

Ingredients & Why They’re Used

• 2 oz light rum
  The neutral sweetness of light rum provides the perfect base for both coconut and lime to shine.

• 1 oz fresh lime juice (~2g net carbs)
  Lime’s acidity keeps the coconut flavor from feeling heavy. It brightens and balances the creamy notes.

• 1 tbsp Keystone Pantry Allulose
  Adds that touch of sweetness to offset the lime and enhance the coconut — all with zero net carbs. Allulose also blends smoothly in cold drinks.

• 1/2 oz coconut extract (or 1 tbsp unsweetened coconut milk)
  Coconut extract gives big coconut flavor without the carbs or fat of cream of coconut. If you want a touch of creaminess, a tablespoon of unsweetened coconut milk keeps it keto-friendly.

• Ice
  Shaken with ice gives a chilled, clean finish — or blend for a frozen option.

• Optional: Toasted coconut garnish or lime twist
  Adds visual appeal and a little extra aroma when you take a sip.

Why it works:

This is like a light, sugar-free cousin of a piña colada — bright, creamy, tropical, but still refreshingly balanced thanks to the lime.

🌟 Summary

Each of these daiquiris honors the spirit of the original — fresh citrus, rum, and just the right sweetness — but uses Keystone Pantry Allulose and keto-friendly ingredients so you can sip without worry.

🍸 Keto Daiquiri FAQ

1. Are daiquiris keto-friendly?
Traditional daiquiris aren’t keto because they use sugar or premade mixers high in carbs. By swapping sugar for Keystone Pantry Allulose, you can enjoy a daiquiri with little to no impact on blood sugar.

2. What sweetener works best in keto daiquiris?
Allulose is the top choice because it dissolves like sugar, has no aftertaste, and doesn’t crystallize in cold drinks. Other keto sweeteners can work, but allulose gives the smoothest, most authentic taste.

3. Can I use bottled lime juice instead of fresh?
Fresh lime juice is best — it keeps the drink bright and flavorful. Bottled juice often contains additives and lacks the fresh citrus punch that makes a daiquiri shine.

4. Are flavored daiquiris (like strawberry or coconut) still low-carb?
Yes! Strawberries are one of the lowest-carb fruits, and coconut extract or unsweetened coconut milk adds tropical flavor without sugar. Both are excellent keto-friendly options when sweetened with allulose.

5. How many carbs are in a keto daiquiri?
A classic keto daiquiri has around 2–3 net carbs, mostly from the lime juice. Variations like strawberry add only about 1–2 extra net carbs.

6. Can these daiquiris be made frozen?
Absolutely. Just blend with ice for a smooth, slushy texture. Allulose also helps prevent iciness, so the drink stays creamy instead of gritty.

7. What rum should I use for keto cocktails?
Choose a light (white) rum — it’s naturally zero-carb and keeps the drink clean and crisp. Darker rums can work, but they’ll add more intense, molasses-like flavors.
