This week I bring you one of my favorites. The Classic Daiquiri is a sour limey drink with a nice bite. Most people are familiar with the “Frozen Strawberry” variety, but the traditional is a shaken smooth cocktail perfect for any occasion.

Classic Daiquiri (shaken)

2 oz white rum
1 oz Lime Juice (1/2 a lime)
½ oz simple syrup

Shake with ice serve in a cocktail glass

Ideally you’ll want to use fresh lime juice for the best taste, but I tend to keep a bottle on hand for longer term use and not having to keep buying limes every week.
