This is the best recipe I've tried for traditional daiquiris. I hope AB does more shows on mixology!




WOW!

Who knew there was a non-flavored daiquiri? I'm sure glad I found out... I'm trying to put together a list of favorites for my hubby's 40th, and this will most certainly be on there. Thanks AB!




Easily...

...the best alcohol containing drink that is not champagne that I have ever consumed. Manly yet delicate, fierce yet subtle this is a drink for the sophisticated.




great!

I'd never had a non-frozen daiquiri unitl a few months ago. This is fantastic and my new favorite drink! (general pet peeve: people rating recipes they have change or not even tried.)




Love it

Possibly my new favorite drink. I made the simple syrup in the microwave in a smaller batch. It simplified the drink even more. Just be sure to use a 2/1 ration of sugar to water. Squeezing limes is not my favorite task though, but still worth the effort.




Excellent and EASY!

As in absolutely fabulous! This has become my new drink of choice. Of course when we go out we have to tell them how to make it...but hey, its a small price to pay. And if they actually ahve the ingredients, I am a happy camper. Thanks Alton!




Very Tasty

Only way to make a true daquiri

This is the best way to make a daquiri. A little extra effort than that pre-made mix, but definetely worth it. I made a batch of the simple syrup and kept it in a tightly sealed container in the fridge, two months later it's still fine to use.




Very nice!

I never knew there was a non-iced daiquiri. I had to try this drink. I used bottled lime juice, but it was still wonderful! I can't wait to try it with fresh-squeezed. I've introduced it to a few friends, and they all loved it. Very crisp and refreshing. It's a little on the strong side, though. I prefer to substitute water for about a third of the rum. A great drink, and super-easy to make, especially since we keep simple syrup in the fridge all the time anyway.




Delish!

I didn't know there was such a thing as a "straight" daiquiri (non-strawberry, peach, etc.). Very clean and fresh tasting. The fresh lime juice made all the difference. Absolutely sublime...(pun intended!)




great date

Good work AB! I don't drink too often (quality over quanity) but I will say this one is right on! I added kept the ice in....faux pau? maybe but it was worthy.

Never had a Daiquiri before and wish I had started drinking them years ago. I don't know what I'm talking about since I haven't had one, but these are great.
