Daiquiri

The Daiquiri is a masterclass in simplicity, combining just three ingredients into one of the most perfectly balanced cocktails ever created. Originating in the mining town of Daiquiri, Cuba, around 1900, this drink showcases the clean character of white rum alongside bright lime and just enough sweetness. It is the true measure of a bartender's skill.
