How to make an original Daiquiri - Masterclass

What are the best ingredients to use to make a delicious Daiquiri, the way it was originally intended? Are there any tips you need to know that will help? Look no further than this Daiquiri Masterclass!

A good Daiquiri is seen as a badge of honour amongst bartenders as it is so simple but so easy to screw up.

The simple combination of lime, sugar and white rum has stood the test of time, but I’m going to show you how to master the balance of these three ingredients so you'll be transporting you and your pals to sunny Cuba in no time!

Method:

60ml (2 oz) Bacardi Carta Blanca rum
20ml (2/3 oz) fresh lime juice
10ml (1/3 oz) cane sugar syrup
Lime zest
Lots of ice

Cut a small strip of lime zest off your lime, with as little pith as possible (you want the aromatic oils but not too much bitterness).

Squeeze your lime and add all the ingredients, including zest, to your shaker.

Shake hard and for a little longer than you think you should.

Strain in to ice cold coupe and serve!

So know you know.
