I used too much ice and watered down the cocktail, thus turning out a pretty ho-hum kind of drink. Still, it was fun to crank up the blender. I'll defer to Alan on this one.
Here's What You Need to Make a Daiquiri:
- Blender
- Ice
- 1 1/2 oz Rum (I know, I know, but I'm going to try again)
- 1/4 oz Triple Sec (a splash)
- 3 oz Sweet and Sour
- Highball glass
Blenderized, but with too much ice. How much is too much ice? Two handfuls is too much ice.
Manly or Girly? Depends on your setting. If you're in an island paradise, it's cool and refreshing even for men. If you're on the Las Vegas Strip, it's girly
Appearance: Pale yellow/green slushy
Consistency: Icy
Taste: Mine had a hint of Sweet & Sour and even less of a hint of Rum (which might be a good thing)
Stomach acceptance: No problem whatsoever
Good drink for: Island paradises, anywhere hot
Hangover factor: Possible. Hangovers are more likely with combined alcohol and sugar
Would I actually order this in public? Perhaps ... maybe ...
Tomorrow's Other Assignment: Fuzzy Navel
