Frozen Lemon Daiquiri

Description

Frozen Lemon Daiquiri works best when it is treated as more than a list of ingredients. The frozen texture softens the edges, so the drink needs enough citrus and lift to stop it tasting heavy. Simple syrup and lemon juice do that job well: fruit brings the holiday feeling, citrus keeps it awake and the spirit gives it a proper cocktail backbone.

Serve it very cold, but not rock-solid; the best version is thick enough to feel luxurious and loose enough to drink without fighting the glass.

  • 15 ml Simple Syrup

  1. Blend white rum, lemon juice, simple syrup, and ice until smooth.
