Cocktail Description
This Periodista Daiquiri transforms the classic Cuban cocktail into a sumptuous orchard experience, balancing bright citrus with luscious stone fruit.
The combination of crisp Plantation 3 Stars white rum and premium Giffard Abricot Du Roussillon creates a sophisticated drink that's both refreshing and complex, with Grand Marnier adding subtle orange notes that complement the apricot's natural sweetness. Each sip delivers a perfect harmony of tart lime cutting through the fruit-forward profile, making it an ideal choice for warm summer evenings or as an elegant aperitif. Despite its sophisticated flavor profile, this cocktail is surprisingly straightforward to prepare—requiring only a good shake with ice and a fine strain into a chilled martini glass. The Periodista Daiquiri pairs beautifully with light seafood dishes, particularly ceviche or grilled shrimp, as well as with semi-soft cheeses and fresh fruit desserts. For a special occasion brunch, this bright, fruit-forward cocktail makes an unexpected alternative to the standard mimosa or Bellini.
