Review:

Cachaça (not slickly speaking a rum) adds distinctive grassy notes to this three 'rum' Daiquiri. Try swapping out the cachaça for rhum agricole and indeed try different combinations of rums using the above formula - not a bad way to spend an evening.

History:

Created by yours truly after I came across numerous Daiquiris based on three different rums in bars across New York City in June 2019.

Very good, but one has to experiment with the products used.

Would consider making this a quad Daiquiri and having an overproof Navy Rum float. Maybe next time.

Not your ordinary daiquiri. Used Clairin Vaval Agricole instead of the cachaca. Also used Hamilton Demerara Rum. Very tart so do not leave out the sugar. A daiquiri for people who like to taste the rum.

Excellent recipe! You can also add one leaf of mint for decoration.
