Mia's Special Daiquiri
Glassware: Nick & Nora
Garnish: Powdered apple skin dust and Sweet Woodruff perfume
- 40 ml Ron Santiago de Cuba Extra Añejo 11 Year Old
- 25 ml Cloudy apple reduction
- 20 ml Sweet Woodruff liqueur
- 7 dashes Yellow habanero and green cardamom shrub
Method: Dust a frozen Nick & Nora glass with gold and dry apple skin. Add ingredients into a shaker with ice, shake and fine strain. Spray with sweet woodruff liqueur.
Inspiration: The combination of Cuba and Denmark showcased in a Daiquiri. Bringing together some of the very best ingredients from both countries. Obviously, Cuba is represented by the tropical notes from Ron Santiago de Cuba Extra Añejo 11 Years Old and the yellow habanero chilli, which are said to have originated in Cuba. In Denmark we have a lot of apples, so I wanted to use that as the freshness and acidity as well as Woodruff, foraged in a forest nearby, and green cardamom adding sweetness and spice to the drink.
