The Old Man and the Daiquiri: Happy New Years from Food & Love.
Authentic Hemingway Daiquirí
Makes one drink.
Ingredients:
1.5 ounces (1 jigger) rhum agricole, such as Clément
3/4 ounce freshly-squeezed lime juice
1/2 ounce freshly-squeezed grapefruit juice
1 teaspoon maraschino liqueur
1 grapefruit peel, for garnish
Combine all of the ingredients except the grapefruit peel in a cocktail shaker with several large ice cubes. Shake vigorously and then let rest until the outside of the shaker starts to sweat, a few seconds.
Strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with the grapefruit peel, comrade. Enjoy.
Variations: If too tart for your palate, add a teaspoon or two of simple syrup. For a Papa Doble—what Ernest likely ordered—double the rum to 3 ounces (2 jiggers) but fix the other ingredients.
