The Classic Daiquiri


It's hot, it's been hot and I've looking for something simple and cool to sip on that's not drowned out in fruit juice. It's a classic and to the point cocktail that's been getting a bad rap as another cheap blender mix along side the margarita. But I highly advise those to go and try the real thing.

The standard recipe calls for 2oz of white rum, 1oz lime juice, 1oz simple syrup. Just shake serve straight with a lime garnish.

I opted out with Cachaca (brazilian rum) and Agave Syrup (I used half the measurement because it's much sweeter). This principle is applicable to just about any combination, so go ahead, switch the base out with another spirit and experiment with the sweet and sour components!
