Centrifuge Clarified Daiquiri
A Daiquiri without shaking, without dilution, without ice contact — spun at high speed to separate the lime solids from the juice, the sugar dissolved cold. The purest possible expression of rum, lime, and sugar.
Served in a coupe glass · Garnish: Single lime oil drop on the surface · Difficulty: hard
Ingredients
- 2 oz White Rum (high-quality)
- 0.75 oz Centrifuged or Fine-Strained Lime Juice
- 0.5 oz Caster Sugar Syrup (cold-dissolved)
Instructions
- To clarify lime juice: strain fresh lime juice through a coffee filter — or use a centrifuge at 3,000 rpm for 5 minutes.
- Dissolve caster sugar in cold water without heating (2:1 ratio, stir until clear).
- Combine cold rum, clarified lime juice, and cold syrup — no ice contact.
- Dilute with 0.5 oz cold water to simulate shake dilution.
- Serve in a frozen coupe — the drink should be crystal clear.
