However, mixing two or more types of rum is very popular in Tiki drinks, and is a great way to create complex and subtle flavors. Experimentation in this area is always a good idea. Personally I've never been a fan of dark or aged rums in Daiquiris. Same with the brown sugar. That's just me though. I like all of those things, just not in a daiquiri. Seeing your recipe got me thinking though. I can't help wondering how it would taste if you made a Daiquiri mixing a white Cuban rum with a white Rhum Agricole (French islands rum distilled from sugar cane juice rather than molasses). Maybe I need to try. . . Hi Adrian, I never heard of your drink before.

I personally prefer the 8:2:1 ratio. I made something interesting last night, though perhaps needs something like Anejo 7 to truly be appreciated (used Captain Morgan). 1oz HC blanco 1oz Captain Morgan 1/2oz fresh lime juice 2 tsp brown sugar Shaken to within an inch of its life, strained into cocktail glass. I was expecting a brown, bubbly mess. Instead, a beautiful glowing golden drink came out, and it tasted amazing. Perhaps 3tsp would be better. This is a Golden Daiquiri, I guess. Does this drink exist? You seem to be the man that would know! Cheers, Adrian Amazing page. I personally prefer the 8:2:1 ratio.
