Originally formed in 1999 as a four piece rock band, period.

Shortly after releasing their debut album, 2001's "Third World Budget", Daiquiri downsized to a 2-piece and took on more of an experimental "electro-punk" sound which can be found on their sophomore release, 2003's "Box Office Poison". Period.

In 2005, Daiquiri released their third full length studio album, "Babies Making Babies", and continued to tour globally, playing non-stop all across North America in between trips overseas (Not true)

In 2006, they announced the pending release of "Flower Shaped Num Nums", a collection of most of the cover songs the band had been performing up until that point. The album was finally released digitally in December of 2010 (available here ). Full stop.

In 2013, Daiquiri released Sequel - their 3rd full length album.

Thanks Anders, Daiquiri has always been my favorite. Here is my version, definitely not a classic, but you should give it a try if you haven’t already..
-45ml White rum (Plantation 3 Star)
-15ml Dark rum (Appleton estate 12years)
-15ml Cointreau
-20ml fresh lime juice
-20ml semi rich simple Syrup (1,5:1)

I recommend adding a little more of both Syrup and Lime (up to 5ml each depending on your limes and your preference of course), otherwise the Cointreau can be quite dominant and destroy a otherwise beautifully balanced drink. If done correctly you add an interesting dimension to this Cocktail with the Cointreau and the dark rum.
Serve up and enjoy :) cheers!

Enjoy National Daiquiri Day, everyone! Which rum will you be using in your daiquiri?

Stephan Roberts

Plantation. Just so happened to be teaching a Daiquiri class and picked up some bottles from Binnys. Love that this video popped up the night before!

Robert Botham

Xamaica. But it's so hard not to go full tiki whenever I get started with a Daiquiri... because I can't choose a rum so I start mixing them and then, well, I have syrups and pimento dram right here...good grief.

Love the reminder to relax on the strict ingredients/ratios/serving styles. Mixology/bartending is an art form... play with it, make it your own, and avoid the inflexible "has to be this way or it's wrong" of these things called cocktails. Nice work as always team & cheers to national daiquiri day! 🍹

I love a good daquiri. I use 'em for a couple things: first, just to make a really simple, easy, tasty drink. But I also like to make a quick daquiri with about every new bottle of rum just because it's a great way to try the rum and get a feel for how it mixes.

Rafael Chavarria

David

Hey Anders, I love your take on this. I have actually read through some of the old Daiquiri recipes. Some did include modifiers (I.e. a dash of grenadine, or curaçao, or maraschino, or bitters). I really like the dash of grenadine included next to the simple syrup. I know it’s not the classic, but each to their own. Enjoy your weekend bro, I really appreciate your videos every week, I know it takes a lot of effort to make these. Cheers 🍹

Anders Erickson

2y↑9

Thank you so much, David! Really appreciate it. I'd love to try every variation of the daiquiri - it's such a good template. Enjoy your weekend with a great cocktail. Cheers!

Amanda Deloff

That would be a great video, make a variety of daiquiris and have az taste test and see which is the best.

Craig Robertson

46w↑1

I make daiquiris as a template to try things, (bitters, syrups, etc.) so I've had quite a few daiquiris that were odd colors. Also, I use whatever rum I'm drinking that month, not always a Cuban style, so even then they're rarely bright white.

My favorite uses Plantation 3 star, agave syrup, lime, and a fat dash of orange bitters.

Nick Schuman

1y↑1

One of my absolute favorites to make at home. So easy and so refreshing

Tim

2y↑19

The only grip I have with a daiquiri is how quickly they go down! For the classic, I LOVE using Plantation 3 Star rum. Just a hint of funk adds some complexity. Same rum I like to use in my mojitos for the same reason.

CE Bailey

2y↑2

Another vote for Plantation 3 here. Made an enormous difference in the quality of my daiquiri. My ratios are sightly different but they work for me: 2 rum:1 lime:0.75 crystal syrup (1:1)

Peter F

2y↑4

Love it! We do lots of tiki drinks including daiquiris. I typically use a light rum like Real McCoy or Probitas but always supplement with a splash of Jamaican pot still to add that touch of earthiness and character.

As I’ve said before, looking forward to you doing more tiki drinks, like jungle Bird, jet pilot, Saturn, navy grog, etc.

Rick Raguso

2y↑2

'splash of Jamaican pot still' that's an idea! gonna try that Pete

Willis Mason

Recently discovered the Royal Bermuda 🇧🇲 Yacht Club Daiquiri recipe which has become my favorite. The Golden Falernum seems to moderate the acidity of the lime juice in the regular Daiquiri and the Orange Curaçao 🇨🇼 seems to temper the tartness of the lime juice resulting in a nicely crafted slightly more complex and smoother variant.

Thanks for the Daiquiri refresher and the dark rendition, always looking for great riffs on the classics. Great drink to discover and develop critical cocktail skills. I learned two key lessons from making the Daiquiri at home. 1. How to balance the sweet and sour notes for my palate (I lean slightly sweet) while maintaining the signature lime bite of the Daiquiri. 2. How to shake for proper chill, dilution, aeration, and integration.

Anders Erickson

2y↑1

You're did it right! Such clean flavors make for the perfect drink to perfect your balance 👍 Cheers!

Andrew Massman-Hall

Hi Anders great video! I make my daiquiris with a split base of 1.5 oz Rhum Barbancourt and 0.5 oz Pussers Rum. For the sugar component, I use Liber & Co's gum syrup. It gives the drink overall a fantastic velvety mouthfeel.

Reviewy McReviewface

Haven't had an honest old school daiquiri in years - thanks for the reminder of just how good a simple drink like this can be! Sipping one right now, and it tastes like a vacation!

Joseph Velez

I typically find myself subbing out white rum for an aged rum. 9/10 times aged rum just makes a drink better. Keep up the good work! Love watching these videos every Friday!

David Stella

2y↑1

It should’ve been more obvious to me before trying this recipe, but the classic daiquiri tasted to me a lot like a mojito without the mint. 😄

Ed Sharpe

I am happy to find that others make a “Dark Daiquiri”, and I enjoy both variations. For the classic Daiquiri I use Bacardi Heritage which is 89 proof and distilled in Mexico. I also use a 2:1 simple syrup. For a Dark Daiquiri I have been using the Appleton 12 year or Matsuala Rum, my rich (Demerara) Syrup is also 2:1.

Chemistry Talk with Dan

2y↑10

I made a daquiri menu for an upcoming party with all sorts of variations. Some of the more interesting ones call for the Plantation Pineapple rum and use either the Luxardo Maraschino or falernum and allspice for the sugar source. So much fun!!

Christine Camley

2y↑2

Sounds delicious!!

Steven Gagnon

2y↑1

I was never a fan of white/light rum. But I just tried the dark daquiri, and I really liked it. Now I'm curious about the light version!

Mark Bower II

I just tried a classic daiquiri or I suppose, a dark daiquiri using 2 ounces of denizen merchant reserve and 2:1 white simple. It was absolutely life changing.

marco valentini

2y↑3

so simple, yet one of my favorites. i always do 2oz rum, 1oz simple syrup and 1oz lime juice. i find it very balanced and not really too sweet, but i’m curious to try your “lower” ratios 💪🏻 keep up the good work, love the channel!

Ronnie Suburban

You are so right about the greatness and timelessness of this cocktail. Between light, dark, agricole and overproof rums, there are endless (and delicious) combinations to explore here. For a while, my go-to was 50/50 barbancourt 4-yr and wray & nephew, which was tasty and very potent. Also loved working smith & cross into various combos. Cheers!

cuatro_santos

2y↑1

I love Daiquiris!
The classic one is a delight, but I sometimes want something more rum-aromatic. Therefore I use cane sugar syrup and a blend of dark and overproof rums. It hits harder but the taste is stunning as well ;)

Karen Fanias

Daiquiri’s have been my favourite drink for YEARS, especially in summer!

Josh Sclafani

The dark daiquiri with Appleton estate signature has been my go-to drink for a while! Thanks for the recipe, Anders!!

Nathan Bowman

The dark recipe is fantastic. Tastes like ice cream. Thank you for the recipe.

Lisa Melroy

Sounds silly, but, having never made one, I had no idea that the daiquiri recipe was so simple! I will be making one very soon! ❤️

Anders Erickson

2y↑1

Not silly at all - I remember feeling the same way! Its simplicity is part of its charm. Cheers!

Top_Cheeze

2y↑5

Staying with the template but mixing different rums and syrups is very fun IMO
And, since you actually have a white rum I personally also really like and use please try this riff:
Use orgeat as the sugar together with the Real McCoy rum and you got a daiquiri with lovely marzipan vibes!

Loesch Zone

2y↑4

5:12 in.. I immediately paused the video and went into the kitchen and made a daiquiri. Three o'clock est seems like daiquiri hour to me! 😉 So good!

Charles Harrington

Thank you for this video! I do love to make complex and convoluted cocktails but some days you just want the simple perfection of a daiquiri. Have never tried a dark daiquiri but I just got some Hamilton and I'm excited to give it a try. Cheers.

Bob

2y↑2

Since you ask, my preference for a Classic Daiquiri is to use Bacardi white label. Unimaginative, I know, but it's basically designed for Daiquiris. I have a sweet tooth (unsophisticated, I know), so I use a richer simple syrup than the video calls for. As far as the Dark Daiquiri goes, I think I'll give it a try.

Andrea Castoldi

Great video! Show us how to do the frozen version! Maybe also the strawberry daiquiri

Dr Detroit

2y↑3

I’ve been making my daiquiris with Rhum agricole blanc and Clairin and they are soooo good.

Pez

Real McCoy or Doorly's 3 are my usual choice . Plantation pineapple is amazing too, sometimes sub it for my own pineapple rum - Rum Bar silver ( or any white Jamaican Rum, even cheap Kingston 62 does the job)with chunks of pineapples left for few days + roasted pineapple juice instead of sugar syrup are absolutely banging. Veritas is too good too miss for great daquiri as well.

Stone henge

I love using different and even aged rum's in my daiquiri and seeing the complexity change.

Anders, it has been a little over a year and a half since I started watching your videos, and my oh my how far have you come (over 300k now.) I just wanted to say thank you for everything you have taught me. Moreover, you inspired me to create my own cocktail Instagram. I posted my first picture a few days ago and the drink was a daiquiri (I guess great minds think alike). Anyway. thanks for everything and keep up the good work. Cheers!

Anders Haglund

Denizen is mostly known for their "Merchant Reserve" Mai Tai rum, but they also make a 3 year blended white rum that is absolutely perfect for a classic Daiquiri.

Vortex1988

I'm surprised how versatile the daiquiri is. The only one I've tried, I made with just some bacardi silver, and it was fantastic. I can't imagine what it would taste like with some rum that is actually worth drinking.

The Falcon

Had a 2:1 simple sugar already made (never goes bad that way, for those that don't know) - so I used your recipe but lowered the simple sugar between the 1/2 and 3/4 mark on my jigger - turned out perfect! Thanks for the vids!

lutzifer67

Hi Anders,
I'm using a Ron agricol from Martinique (La Mauny). It adds some floral, herbal notes that make the drink also pretty different from molasses based rums. Give it a try, it's a nice twist. Kepp up the good work and cheers.

Natalie Blackburn

2y↑1

I've been making daiquiris with Plantation 3 Star for a while, but decided I'd do the same as you, and used some of my Denizen Merchant Reserve 8 Year instead. Totally different experience, totally awesome. Thanks!

Manasvi Kalia

2y↑2

Just wanted to say that upon watching this video I tried a daiquiri with both dark rum and white rum and it was superb, thank you Anders for the idea. The richer bolder flavour of Ron Zacapa ambar 12 paired really well with the crisp smooth finish of Bacardi blanca

I made a Grapefruit Daquiri in my last cocktail bar, used half simple syrup and half of my homemade grapefruit syrup. Turned out really well! Garnish was a dehydrated grapefruit slice

How did you make grapefruit syrup? I love grapefruit and for that reason make many zombies.

Stefan Bauer

So glad that you made a daiquiri Episode! It is my favourite Drink! Congrats to 300 k subscribers btw - you and az earned it! Superb Production quality!

bdxman

Thank you Andres! Another educational, entertaining, amazing video! I really hope that one the channel goes on the road to talk to distillers, mixologist..and visit lounges etc. Your style is so entertaining and enjoyable to watch. And when you and Az team up, it's sheer delight. Keep up the great work!

Leo Chau

the daiquiri template is great for experimenting blending rums. keep the other components (lime and sugar) equal, and you mess around with splitting the rums to see how the different flavors show up. then, you can adjust accordingly to balance out the cocktail. Voila, you have a new daiquiri variation!

J C

I absolutely love a 3,2,1 Rum, lime, simple daiquiri with Probitas. The bit of funk in the Probitas just works oh so well. I think a daiquiri flight is in order today!

Connor Crain

I’ve been making mine with a rich demurara and barboncourt(probably spelled that wrong) rum and I love the difference between it and a traditional daiquiri

Kaijugan2001

For my preferred daiquiri, I like to use either Bacardi, Plantation, or Diplimatico as my light and dark rum choices. Or Bumbu (spiced and XO), Smith and Cross, or El Dorado.

Kathy Heater

Love your videos! I have learned so much! I have also spent way too much on adding to my home bar😂I would love a video on Hemingway’s Daiquiri! It’s one of my favorites

Man I wish I could find that OXO jigger without the insane markup we have here in Europe… it sells around 40€…
That aside, Anders, you got me hooked up from the first video. They have it all and every time I recreate a cocktail with your ratios, they taste amazing. Thank you so much !

Marcus Weatherbee

I ordered one and love it. That sucks you have to deal with the markup. My only gripe with it is that there is no 20z (60ml) measurement. Not a deal breaker, as it has a 1oz (30ml) measurement. Other than that, the the thing feels great in your hands and there's virtually no spillage. Hopefully you can pick one up for a reasonable price!

David Lopez

Really glad to see this on the channel since it's my favourite cocktail, Anders! I've been making it with Plantation 3-star for a while now, but I just got a bottle of Flor de Caña that I'm excited to try it with.

Any thoughts on other ratios to use btw? I've seen 2-1-1 and 8-3-3 mentioned in other places, so I was curious if it depended on the rum/syrup used.

captain barge

That's cool that you didn't alter proportions from one of your earlier videos with multiple cocktails including daiquiri. :) Thanks for the video.

ber mei

2y↑1

I've always considered daiquiris my #1 favorite cocktail. People always look at me weird when I say that because they think I'm talking about the overly sweet frozen ones. I think Flor De cana extra seco makes the best clean daiquiri, but I do love dark ones as well, and the best daiquiris I've had in bars here in Portland have always been dark ones. Amusingly, the best daiquiri I ever had was at the whiskey library lounge. They were doing these banana daiquiris with doctor bird rum and I don't know what else but they were just perfect in every way. I had like 5 of those that night. I've been trying to recreate it at home with what I have on hand, using creme de banane and various rums. They're good but not on the level of what I had at that bar.

Andrej Kveder

Really enjoying your channel, Anders! You got me going on cocktails again. Was trying to get the Hamilton in the UK but no joy. What would be a good rum as the replacement? Would really love to create the dark one!

David

Jumped up and made one, dark, before the end of the video. I've been making daiquiris all my adult life, mostly with fruit, but back to the basics is awesome. Flor de Cana 7 year old rum and agave syrup instead of demarara because it's what I had on hand.

kyle gorham

Hey Anders, thank you so much for all the great content. I really look forward to the drops every week. It's been fun to try new drinks and so far every one I've made is spot on! I did want to ask you, what do you use to store your fresh lime juice? I've gotten a ton of stuff from your links already but what you use looks much nicer than my glass measuring cup haha. Also, follow up question how long does fresh lime juice stay good for? Sorry in advance if these have been asked/answered before. Again, thanks for what you do!

Can’t go wrong with a daiquiri. I used Brugal as my dark rum, it’s from the Dominican Republic (also great in piña coladas) with rich Demerara and it’s BANGIN.

Markus Jevring

I always do a 112 daquiri with 2:1 simple. I love that sweetness. I think I've explored every single rum I own in a daquiri, and they're all fantastic. It's such a good vehicle for rums =)

Toby Jonas

I love these videos. Could watch them all day. Actually, after a shift at the bar, I come home and watch them with an AE cocktail. Tonight I was told by the daughter of an Italian cocktail tutor that I made her the best Negroni she's ever had, and it was an AE Negroni. I'm sitting here now with the bin ends of a Primitivo, a Greco di Tufo, a Quinta de Boa rose, and a perfect Manhattan. The kids are asleep, I'm on YouTube. It's all good. But - and I mean this with all due respect - as a Brit, I'll never understand the US obsession with baseball caps.

Joe

I think it’s due to sports. OTOH, we don’t understand your obsession with the monarchy. Nor do we understand how you get away with restricting it to Anglicans in this day and age..

Hey Anders! I created a drink at the coffee shop I managed previously and we called it a "dark daiquiri". I made a homemade coffee infused rum by essentially making cold brew with dark rum instead of water (only let it steep for about two hours thought). Something affordable like Flor de Cana or Havana Club. Then used our house vanilla syrup and fresh lime. Same Build. 2oz Coffee Infused Rum, 1oz Vanilla syrup, 1oz Lime. It was a hit. I be honored to hear your thoughts on it if you happened to try it.

Hugh Caldwell

That sounds awesome! Commenting so I can find my way back here.

azzwort

I'm a huge fan of Jamaican rum for daiquiris, I feel like the funk of Rum Bar or Rum Fire is something special. Also, technically not a daiquiri but Batavia Arrack in the same spec is very fun.

I build all of these equal parts sweet and sour, mostly because I'm dumb and it's easier to remember (2 oz booze to 3/4ths oz lime & Simple). I think the high proof rums stand up to it very well. Also, I got my hands on a bottle of Havana Club 3 year and the thing that no one tells you is that it's oddly boozy tasting even though it's an 80 proof bottle, it also stands up to that spec.

So last Sunday I was making two Daquiries using Hamilton white Stache and the other was Plantation 3 star. .75 lime, .5 rich simple, 2 oz rum. Both were excellent, with Plantation being a bit sweeter. I also like using Kaniche XO with lemon instead of lime when I want a dark daquiry.

I love Daiquiris and I do a dark one too. I use Myers dark rum, 2 oz., Sugar in the raw liquid syrup if you can find it. It's very thick and has a flavor that really enhancers the drink.Scant 3/4 oz and 3/4 oz lime juice. Try it, you'll love it.

I use Havana Club 3 años for daiquiris, which I find perfect. Works well in mojitos too.

as a Louisianian, we love our relaxed liquor laws and i use the drive up daiquiri shop every weekend😂😂. it’s considered a closed container until you take the piece of tape off the lid of the to-go cup. also we can take home to-go drinks from the bar

I absolutely love classic daiquiris. I could drink them on a daily basis.
My go to recipe is adapted to the cocktail codex version:
1,75oz light rum (Plantation 3 Stars, it has some light jamaican funk in it)
0,25oz Clairin (makes a huuge impact)
1oz lime (opting for super lime, recipe by zack zoschke)
0,75oz 1:1 simple
Perfect Daiquiri for my taste buds.

Anders, I've invented my first cocktail, a pineapple-coconut daiquiri. It came out so delicious I had to share it: 2 1/2 ox. Plantation pineapple rum, 1/4 oz. Koloa coconut rum, 1 oz. lime juice, 3/4 oz.simple syrup. Shake and strain.

alessandro zanetti

Keep doing like this Anders, you're one of the nicest and funniest guys on YouTube!

Great video. Kōloa from Hawaii is my go to rum. The dark has amazing vanilla notes. I’m going to try your dark version with it.

Patrick Cornfield

Anders, I just ordered my first bottle of Suze, which isn’t easy to find in New Zealand. I’m holding you and your channel directly responsible 😜

“If you like rum, put it in a daquiri” … words to live by.

Man, Plantation 3 Star is my go-to base for daqs (or any drink that calls for a light white rum). Good call on the Appleton as well. That 12 year is so freaking smooth. Gonna try your recipe soon!

Fly Fisher

I do love a daiquiri. Anders, can you please do a banana daiquiri one week please? 👍

Doing the Dark Daiquiri tonight! I have El Dorado 12 Year at hand so I will use that one, should be wonderful together with the demerara syrup... Cheers to Daiquiri day Anders & Az! 🥂

Anders Erickson

Enjoy it, Dimitar! Happy Daiquiri Day!

Eric Carminati

Here we go...I need to make a daiquiri now 🍹

Raymond Weiss

Made the Dark Daiquiri tonight well two of them, my roommate decided to stick with bourbon so I guess they are both for me. Damn good drink. It really highlights the rum.

Kirk Timmins

Love this channel always give me a good drink idea for the weekend. Thanks for the inspiration. Keep up the good work.

samuel hancock

Happy Friday! I can't say I've seen the dark Daiquiri before. Going to have to try this one, especially since I recently made a fresh batch of demerara syrup. Great video as always! Thanks!

Enjoy it! Cheers, Sean!

I use light rum, but will try dark rum, I love the sourness from the lemon or lime!!

Michelle Hill

You just made me go into my kitchen and make one! I used a 3 year old Cuban rum (Havana Club) don't think you get it in the U.S. It's a light rum with a slight amber tint. I also used a brown sugar for my syrup. Tried it and with drink in hand I am watching the rest more of your channel...and I just love it! I had no idea that this drink originated in Cuba. Learn something new every day 🙂

Pan Alkoholowy

For every Daiquiri fan, you should go out there, find the Plantation Pineapple infused rum and make the Stiggins Daiquiri.

Emmanuel B

thanks Anders for another great video! +1,000 on the Hemingway Daiquiri, it's my all time favorite cocktail and I'd love to know how you do it ;)

Leda Botelho

My mouth is salivating. I haven't had a daiquiri in so long. I'm always trying other drinks and trying to learn new flavors. Looks like it's always nice to go back to a simple and timeless drink. You're amazing. Enjoy your weekend and stay cool.... Away from the studio. 🤣🤣🤣

Wow. Love the Dark Daquiri. Rich and refreshing. Happy National Daquiri Day!

Lucas Chang

Personally, I like the Plantation Fiji rum, lime and demarara. I love a good funky rum! i tend to save the guyana rums for mai tais, mixing and sipping, but that's me personally.

Kid Yuki

I was half expecting that Probitas back there to make an appearance on this episode. People on r/rum won't shut up about making daiquiris with Probitas lol

That being said, I totally get why you chose the rums you did. Really shows off the broad range of flavors you can get from just rum, lime, and sugar.

Haha I did think about it! There's just so many good options out there - and they all make uniquely wonderful daiquiris.

Jasmin Gentry

I have not ever had an actual Daiquiri. I am itching to try this!

James Gilbert

Real McCoy 3 is my light rum for people who like rum flavor (like I do). For people who maybe just want something fruity and refreshing, Cane Run is my go to.

Robert Grenader

I make all my light rum drinks with an Agricole Rum; my current bottle is from Martinique. I love the taste of a cane rum vs molasses. And, national Daiquiri day is July 19
