This daiquiri is tangy, sweet and oh-so-refreshing. It’s also really simple. Just make some simple syrup which is exactly what it sounds like – simple (it’s just sugar and water) and steep it with some mint. Then squeeze some clementines, and limes and shake it all together with some rum and ice and ta-daaaah – the daiquiri. 👏👏👏
I know the cocktail shaker can be intimidating, so I also made a pitcher version of the recipe. You can just follow the pitcher instructions with the cocktail shaker amounts if you only want to make two. Also I made the pitcher version because we’re going to be able to hang out with people again SOMETIME, right? So when we can, this pitcher recipe will be here waiting for you.
Okay, here’s the recipe folks. These are so good guys. 😍
Tangy, sweet and super refreshing, this daiquiri is just what you need. Trust me 🙌
