Experience the quintessential balance of the original Cuban classic, the Classic Daiquiri. This deceptively simple mix of bright lime, sweet simple syrup, and the nuanced, award-winning flavor of Virago Rum creates a brilliantly refreshing and perfectly sour escape. It’s an essential rum cocktail—smooth, zesty, and effortlessly sophisticated, perfect for a sunny afternoon or a taste of the tropics.
Prep: Gather the necessary ingredients, including the Virago Rum, fresh lime juice, and double simple syrup. Select a chilled coupe or cocktail glass for serving.
Mix: Pour the rum, lime juice, and simple syrup directly into a cocktail shaker.
Shake: Fill the shaker with ice and seal tightly. Shake vigorously until the shaker is thoroughly chilled on the outside, achieving proper dilution and temperature.
Serve: Double-strain the mixture into the prepared chilled coupe or cocktail glass.
Garnish: Garnish the finished drink with a single fresh raspberry or a thin, elegant lime wheel.
