Daiquiri comes together as a classic cocktail of white rum, fresh lime juice, and simple syrup. You pour rum, strained lime juice, and syrup into an ice-filled shaker and shake vigorously for 12-15 seconds. You strain it through a sieve into a chilled cocktail glass without ice. You garnish with a thin lime wheel and serve right away, well chilled.

Step by step process

Preparation

1
Chill 4 cocktail glasses in the freezer for at least 5 minutes. A daiquiri is served without ice, so a cold glass keeps it chilled longer.
2
Juice the limes using a citrus press and strain the juice through a fine sieve to remove pulp and seeds.
TIP:
After squeezing the lime juice, strain it through a fine sieve and, if necessary, through a second sieve or cheesecloth to remove pulp and seeds. The resulting clear juice blends better with the cocktail.

Mixing

3
Fill a shaker or jar with plenty of ice, then add the white rum, fresh lime juice, and simple syrup.
4
Shake vigorously for 12-15 seconds, until the shaker is noticeably frosted on the outside and the drink is well chilled.
5
Strain through a fine strainer into the chilled cocktail glasses to prevent ice shards from entering the drink.
