We will be brief, today a great barman has prepared for you, dear friends, a fabulous cocktail: a spartan drink, but with a crazy balance and charm.
We are talking about pomegranate Daiquiri. An essential drink, but great intensity and softness. The pomegranate is sweet, aromatic and very sharp, lime adds a Caribbean twist and rum adds a nice touch with its gentle, but firm, caress.
Apparently, it is a dangerous cocktail, pomegranate and lime are both dangerously sour and in fact, this is precisely the point. The pomegranate must be fully ripe, otherwise, you may have a too crabbed cocktail. Never as in this case, the perfect ripeness of the ingredients is crucial. So pay attention.
But let’s not waste any more time, here is the recipe for a perfect pomegranate Daiquiri, made by the legendary Antonello, owner of the prestigious Anonima Fornelli in Imola.
Enjoy!
