Don’s Special Daiquiri
Flavor profile: smooth, tropical, and lightly floral—blending Jamaican and Cuban rums with lime, passion fruit, and a touch of honey. Balanced and refreshing with gentle depth.
Serves: 1 • Time: 3 minutes • Difficulty: Easy
Ingredients
- 1 oz gold Jamaican rum
- 1/2 oz Cuban rum
- 1/2 oz passion fruit syrup
- 1/2 oz fresh lime juice
- 1/2 oz honey syrup
- Crushed ice
Garnish
- 1 dehydrated lime wheel (Bar Necessities)
- Fresh mint sprig
Instructions
- Add both rums, passion fruit syrup, lime juice, and honey syrup to a blender or milkshake mixer with a scoop of crushed ice.
- Blend (or “flash-blend”) for a few seconds until just combined and frosty.
- Pour into a chilled coupe or footed glass.
- Top with more crushed ice to mound.
- Garnish with a dehydrated lime wheel and mint.
Tips & Variations
- Classic nod: add a small splash (0.25 oz) of fresh grapefruit juice if you like a brighter, tarter edge.
- Sweeter or drier: adjust honey syrup ±0.25 oz to taste.
- Make it zero-proof: swap rums for 2 oz pineapple juice + 1 oz coconut water; keep the rest the same.
Recommended Bar Necessities garnish: dehydrated lime wheels. Link the garnish text to your product page for quick add-to-cart.
