For an even smoother Daiquiri, use simple syrup instead of granulated sugar. Adjust sweetness to your liking. Freshly squeezed lime juice is crucial for the best flavor. Avoid bottled lime juice. Chill your serving glass in the freezer for at least 15 minutes for an extra frosty experience. Experiment with different rums to find your favorite flavor profile. A good quality white rum is recommended. If serving on the rocks, shake the rum, lime juice, triple sec, and sugar with ice in a shaker until well-chilled. Strain into a chilled glass filled with ice.
