Review:

A funked-up Daiquiri. This is a no-nonsense cocktail, so there's no need for an oversized cube or block ice. Indeed, this cocktail benefits from dilution. To properly appreciate, sip while listening to Cantaloop (Flip Fantasia) from the album Hand On The Torch played at 11.

If you "accidentally" overdose the rum - like I did, silly me! - it works perfectly well as a nightcap too!
