History

Created in 2002 by Jake Burger at Townhouse bar in Leeds, England.

Named after Daisy Duke, the character from the American television series The Dukes of Hazzard. Played by Catherine Bach, Daisy is an aspiring singer-songwriter who works as a waitress at Boar's Nest, the local tavern owned by Boss Hog. Daisy is the cousin of Bo and Luke Duke, the show's main protagonists and became famous for her incredibly short shorts. Such a fashion icon did Daisy's shorts become that The Smithsonian Institution, the world's largest museum, has a pair from the show in its collection.

This bright red drink is better balanced and tastier than it perhaps looks.

It's winter here in Vermont and this is a summertime cocktail and I don't care because I want to be sitting on my front lawn playing horseshoes and drinking something like this.

It's a nice blend of tart and sweet, very well-balanced. I think it'd taste even better with homemade grenadine and fresh berries (raspberry, blackberry, or even blueberry or strawberry) as suggested. But it's winter and I make do with what I have. And it's still dang good.

Try with peychaud's and/or angostura bitters.
