Got a bottle of white Meyer’s at T O. What’s a good cocktail to use it in?

I have found that one of the best ways to try most any new rum (other than sipping neat) is to mix a simple daiquiri. This holds especially true for the whites or very light rums in my opinion.

Here is how I make mine...

2oz rum
3/4oz fresh lime juice (muy importante)
1/2oz to 3/4oz simple syrup (I use a 1:1 ratio)

Shake very well with about a half cup of crushed ice and strain into a daiquiri style glass (coupe).
You may have to modify the lime/syrup ratios as I tend to like mine a little on the tart side.

Cheers and Aloha!
