Daiquiri - Classic

The Daiquiri is an extremely liberating drink for anyone with an imagination and most recently a blender.

Ingredients

1 1/2 oz

Rum - White

3/4 oz

Juice - Lime

1 tsp

Sugar - Powdered

1 _

Lime

Instructions

Shake all the (liquid) ingredients with ice. Strain into chilled cocktail glass an garnish with a lime slice.
Of course the light rum is entirely subjective but for a smoother, lighter-tasting Daiquiri light rum is probably your best bet.
Dubbed a Frozen Daiquiri: All (liquid) ingredients can be placed in a good blender-one that can crush ice, and blended together to create a smoothie of sorts – blend for approximately 15 seconds. Or another variation would add 1/2oz. Triple Sec and 1 cup crushed ice.
Variations: Apple Daiquiri: Add 1/2oz. Apple brandy and garnish with an apple slice brushed lightly with lime juice in order to halt the browning of the apple pulp.
Derby Daiquiri: Add 1oz. Fresh orange juice, and garnish with an orange slice.
