Review:

Tiki meets the aperitivo/digestivo in this sweet 'n' sour almond daiquiri. Like other daiquiris, this cocktail benefits from dilution so, hence the serve over crushed ice. (Add a splash of water to the recipe if serving on-the-rocks.)

History:

Adapted from a recipe created in 2020 by Meaghan Dorman at Raines Law Room in New York City, USA. Meaghan's original recipe calls for Appleton Reserve and Smith & Cross Jamaican rums.
