AUGUST IS THE PERFECT MONTH TO EXPAND YOUR COCKTAIL HORIZONS.
AUGUST IS A STRANGE DRINKING MONTH.
Summer is winding down, the rains are intermittent and the nippy looms. You’re over rosé and can’t do another Tom Collins, but it’s not quite brandy season and whisky doesn’t seem right in the stifling heat. In other words, it’s the month to experiment. Maxim asked some of the best bartenders for their go-to August cocktails, and they didn’t disappoint. So drink up—summer’s not over yet.
Perfect Daiquiri
The Perfect Daiquiri is the perfect balance of sour, sweet, and spirit. The perfect combo of texture, brightness, and depth. It never outstays its welcome and is a great cocktail to enjoy all summer long and as you head slowly into the winter.
30 ml lime juice
15 ml rich cane syrup
75 ml rum mix (30 ml white rum, 15 ml aged rum and 15 ml dark rum)
Combine ingredients, shake, and serve in a sour glass.
Ni Hao, Ginger
