Although Rum wasnāt always a popular drink here in the United States, the Daiquiri is an awesome cocktail that is beautiful in its simplicity. The drink is believed to have originated in Cuba in the late 1800s. It is named after a beach and iron mine in Cuba. The drink was brought to the U.S. in the early 1900s, but didnāt gain major popularity until World War II when Whiskey and Vodka were rationed. Although many variations have been developed over the years, this is the original.

Drink Appearance
As you can see in the photos the shaking of this drink gives is a cloudy presentation. It is best served with a lime wedge or wheel for the guest. I always prefer to serve this in a chilled cocktail glass, but historically it can also be served over cracked ice.
Drink Ingredients
2 oz Light Rum
1 oz Freshly Squeezed Lime Juice
1/2 oz 2:1 Simple Syrup
Drink Preperation
Add all ingredients into a mixing glass
Add ice and shake well
Strain into a chilled cocktail glass
Garnish with a lime wedge or wheel
Drink Impressions
Overall I find this drink to be very powerful with citrus. It is one that cuts down on the alcohol burn greatly and can taste decent with a variety of different rums. You can up the simple syrup a little if you find it to be too overpowering on the sour side. A 2:1:1 ratio would work nicely with this drink I think.
Also donāt be afraid to try some Dark Rum in this drink as well. It can add an extra dimension to this drink as well.
Ā Daiquiri Cocktail Recipe ā The Original CubanĀ Treat Although Rum wasn't always a popular drink here in the United States, the Daiquiri is an awesome cocktail that is beautiful in its simplicity.
So the Pink Squirrel is a unique drink that utilizes Creme de Noyaux, an almond flavored cream liqueur that doesnāt get a lot of usage. This drink is a great after dinner cocktail and itās very light on the ABV so you donāt have to worry too much about being tipsy when finished. Itās perfect for the sweet tooth.

Drink History
As far as I know the Pink Squirrel was invented by Bryant Sharp in 1941 at Bryants Cocktail Lounge (source). This cocktail originally called for ice cream instead of the cream that most recipes will tell you to use. Iād say itās worth trying both ways. After all, thereās not a ton of usage for Creme de Noyaux anyway. Although Iām sure Iāll be trying some more recipes out before I finish this bottle off.
Drink Characteristics
So this drink is very pink. It kind of has the color of Pepto Bismol, which is cool with me because I like the flavor. It is also a very light drink as the Creme de Cacao is a 17.5% ABV and Creme de Noyaux is a 15% ABV alcohol. With the equal parts ratio the recipe calls for that makes the ABV of this drink 10.8% ABV before being diluted further with ice.
Drink Ingredients
In order to make this drink you only need 3 main ingredients to put in with your ice. If youāre having some trouble locating Creme de Noyaux than I would suggest seeing if you can order it online. Also on a side note, I decided to use half and half instead of heavy cream because I thought the initial thickness was a little too much and wanted to thin it out a little. Feel free to try the Heavy Cream if you would like.
1 Part Creme de Noyaux
1 Part Creme de Cacao (Light)
1 Part Half & Half or Heavy Cream
Drink Preparation
Grab yourself a shaker tin and some ice for this drink.
Add all ingredients to a mixing glass.
Add ice and shake well.
Double strain into a Coupe glass.
No garnish is needed for this drink, I think the cool pink color in the coupe glass is a nice presentation without a garnish anyway.
My Impressions
So this drink has a nice little nutty flavoring with a chocolate finish. It kind of has a slight thickness to it, but with the half & half it isnāt too bad. The cocktail goes down smooth with absolutely no burn at all, itās as if there isnāt even any alcohol in there at all.
If youāre saying to me āEric, it doesnāt have enough alcohol in it!ā I would be inclined to agree with you. My suggestion to remedy this would be to add a little bit of cognac or brandy to it. It should round it off quite nicely.
