Amaro Daiquiri cocktail served in a coupe — Three-ingredient perfection with a bitter Italian third.

The Method

How to make it

  1. 01

    Chill a coupe hard — a daiquiri lives or dies on temperature.

  2. 02

    Shake all liquid ingredients with ice for 12 seconds.

  3. 03

    Double-strain into the frozen coupe.

  4. 04

    Notch a lime wheel onto the rim.

Bartender's Tip

Taste before you strain. Nonino carries real sugar, and depending on your limes you may want the simple syrup down to a quarter ounce.

A Little History

The daiquiri is the bartender's diagnostic drink: nothing hides in it. Which is exactly why Nonino works here — its grappa base and barrel time add texture that plain rum can't, without pushing the drink out of its three-ingredient discipline.
