Review

Rich, flavoursome honey replaces sugar syrup in this delicious Daiquiri. The fuller your honey, the more flavoursome your rum should be.

Tried with 1oz Bacardi 8 and 2/3 oz Hamilton 151, which balanced the honey sweetness even better and gave the kick we wanted.

We loved this but, like some other commenters, wanted the Rum a bit 'punchier'. So we simply added 5ml overproof aged pot-still Worthy Park 109. Absolutely delicious for us.

I used Flor De Cana 7 years rum and local "grown" honey.
And found this cocktail to improve a lot after 5-6 minutes in Nick&Nora glasses. I think the shaking added bubbles

Excellent cocktail! I had only Havana Club Especial available, sorrily this rum is too light to balance the honey.

To my taste the 15ml of 3/1 honey syrup was a bit too much, too sweet… perhaps the honey I used was too fragrant. Otherwise, absolutely amazing! I used Diplomático Reserva Exclusiva and the character of the rum really came through

Maybe the problem is with the rum, considering that the Diplomatico Reserva Exclusiva is quite sweet.

Loved this after adding 1/4 ounce Cointreau.

Oh wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Just splendid. Using Appleton Estate Reserve Blend, I'm tasting just hints of the funk making it so balanced. The rich honey and the lime are already a match made in heaven. Delightful. Absolutely deserving the 5 stars.

Used half slightly overproof Caribbean blend rum and half 8 year Jamaican rum. The extra hit of proof and Jamaican funk tamed down the sweetness. Was wonderful.

Perfectly balanced, it is great with Bacardi 8, and probably great with other rums if you experiment a bit. 5 stars for me!
