A deliciously clean and cleansing Daiquiri with delicate notes of maraschino and anise

I replaced Pernod with an Antesite anise concentrate that would have a similar flavor profile. The drink turned a light-brown color and showed a depth; I could taste each ingredient clearly and feel balanced—an interesting result.

Used 1/6 oz of the anise concentrate again, cut the rich syrup by 1/3 oz, and swapped the garnish for an absinthe rinse. Not a bright drink—rich and foamy. I love a daiquiri with this kind of depth.
