Daiquiri Naturale
Daiquiri Cocktail is pure classic cocktail which was invented in 1898 by J. Cox. But the Wondrich point of view is closest for me. This simple composition of rum, lime and sugar is one of great cocktail in the world. The Daiquiri Cocktail is second place in my favorite cocktails list this summer (after Margarita Cocktail).
One of the best recipe of Daiquiri Cocktail I found on the book Cocktails and Mixed Drinks by Anthony Hogg. This british naval officer is a good judge of rum cocktails :) The same recipe I found on CocktailDB.
Daiquiri
50 ml white cuban rum
15 ml fresh lime juice
6 dash simple syrup
Shake. Cocktail glass.
The Daiquiri Cocktail is excellent refreshing drink. The taste of Daiquiri is little sour with potent rum notes.
For bright and strong rum taste in the Daiquiri Cocktail I use sugar syrup from dark sugar such unrefined Demerara brown sugar or Muscovado (dark unrefined sugar with strong molasses flavor). Some dash of sugar syrup from this sugar give us Ideal Daiquiri Cocktail with rich and smooth taste of rum.
My Ideal Daiquiri
50 ml white cuban rum
15 ml fresh lime juice
1-3 dash sugar syrup (Demerara or Muscovado)
5-3 dash simple syrup
Shake. Cocktail glass.
The best results I obtain with cuban light rum – Havana Club Anejo Blanco. This great rum is my choice of rum in Mojito and in Daiquiri too.
