Adding a 10ml float of Wray & Naphew Overproof Rum works well.

As Tolstoy said: "There is no greatness where there is not simplicity, goodness and truth." I'm pretty sure that a Daquiri never passed betwixt his lips, but if I'm wrong he may have had this recipe in mind.

I used Rivière du Mat Reunion island gold rum. Has a peaty whisky like taste. Really good in this Diaquiry. If you like rum and lime this is the cocktail for you.

Not much to add really, this so easy (too easy???) to drink, absolute yum!

Perfection in a coupe! My little secret is to fine strain the lime first and put into the Boston tin- then fast hard shake with ONE large ice cube and no need to double strain , just use a Hawthorn strainer and pour fast and high. Generally never get ice shards and the perfect fluffy top.
Bob's Difford Daiquiri bitters a must and I add 4-6 drops of saline. So simple, so bloody good. Havana Club 3, Plantation 3 Star a stand out- even Bacardi Carta Blanca. Heaven on a warm evening.

Made this just now with powdered canesugar and Clément VSOP rum de Martinique. The complexity of the rum seems to be amplified by the use of canesugar, definitely would recommend
