Cocktail Base

2 oz Añejo rum (Havana Club preferred)3/4 oz Triple sec (orange liqueur)3/4 oz Fresh lime juice2 oz Strawberry purée1/4 oz Simple syrup (1:1 sugar to water)

Ice & Finish

1 cup Crushed ice or clear ice cubes1 to taste Garnish: fresh strawberry (halved) or lime wheel1 tsp Optional: superfine sugar for glass rim

Method

Preparation

Chill glass (optional)

If desired, place a coupe or martini glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes or fill with ice water while you prepare the cocktail to keep the drink cold longer.

Rim the glass (optional)

If using a sugared rim, rub a lime wedge around the glass rim, then dip lightly into superfine sugar. Set aside.

Mixing & Serving

Add the añejo rum, triple sec, fresh lime juice, strawberry purée, and simple syrup into a cocktail shaker.

Add a generous scoop of crushed ice (or about 1 cup of ice cubes) to the shaker. Secure the lid.

Shake vigorously for 12–18 seconds until the shaker is well-chilled and slightly frosted. Vigorous shaking helps aerate the purée and integrate the flavors.

If you used large ice cubes, strain the drink through a fine-mesh strainer into the chilled coupe or martini glass over crushed ice, or double-strain into the glass without additional ice for a cleaner presentation.

Garnish with a halved fresh strawberry on the rim or a lime wheel floated on top. Serve immediately.

Taste and adjust: if the daiquiri is too tart, add an additional 0.25 oz simple syrup and gently stir; if too sweet, add 0.25 oz more fresh lime juice.
