Few cocktails are as clean and satisfying as a well-made daiquiri ā just rum, fresh lime juice, and simple syrup shaken hard over ice until the shaker frosts in your hand. The result is bracingly tart, lightly sweet, and silky smooth in a way that makes you wonder why you'd ever order anything more complicated. Because every ingredient here is straightforward and naturally derived, there's no need to scan labels or second-guess what's hiding in a pre-made mix. Double-straining through a fine-mesh strainer is the small extra step that separates a truly polished pour from a cloudy, chip-filled glass ā and it's absolutely worth it. Serve it up in a chilled coupe and finish with a lime wheel on the rim for a presentation that looks like it came from a proper cocktail bar. This is the kind of recipe that becomes a go-to the moment you make it once.
