More deep golden amber than black in appearance, this Daquiri takes its name from the black rum (well, dark brown rum) it's made with. Pungent rum notes...
I am NOT a dark rum drinker. But the sound of this recipe was enough for me to get a bottle of Plantation dark rum and I loved it! Nice to have something other than a Hemingway Daiquiri to put a bit of fresh grapefruit juice in. (Note: my 2:1 sugar syrup is made with Billington's light muscovado sugar - or rather, pure liquid gold). Like Betty, it is on the list! (And I am off to make another one)
Not the prettiest color.....but great taste! Love being able to use grapefruit and it nicely balances the lime. Citrus forward and easy to drink....though potent. Going into the rotation.
