A Daiquiri sweetened with raspberry and grenadine syrup and mellowed by egg white

Made a version of your version of the drink (as an egg white sour with 10ml each of grenadine and raspberry syrup and no simple). Results in a nice, fruity sour redolent of a Clover Club with rum. I used Bacardi and Havana Club 3 for the rums, which to be honest, didn't provide much distinguishing differences between each other.

Made it frappe as per the original (no raspberry syrup at hand though). Pretty decent, but not all that remarkable. However, the appearance is completely different from the picture, with my cocktail coming out pink. I can't imagine how bland it would be with a column still charcoal filtered aged rum (like a Bacardi as he was saying). I did use aquafaba.
