1pt Daiquiri Provencal Recipe
1pt Daiquiri Provençal
Inspired by the breezy charm of Provence, this simple combination of lavender, orange, and licorice infusion flavors perfectly complements the sweetness of rum and the tart-sweet combination of lime and wildflower honey, bringing a floral-citrusy twist to a classic cocktail. Each sip conjures up a summer day in the French countryside. Perfect for batching and just as delightful as a mocktail, it’s an easy, crowd-pleasing way to share the taste of sunshine.
STEP 1 - Easy All-Natural Infusion
Infuse Your Spirit:
Combine a 1pt Floral Infusion Blend Packet with 375ml of Rum in any lidded container. Let it infuse for 4-5 hours, then strain, and reserve the infused spirit for your cocktails. (No need to refrigerate - infused spirits can be stored indefinitely at room temperature)
1pt Floral Infusion Blend Ingredients:
Chamomile, Lavender, Orange Zest, Licorice Root - no sugar, gluten, dairy, nuts, additives, or preservatives
Mocktail* Version:
Substitute water or a zero-proof spirit for the alcohol in this infusion and follow the same steps. (Non-alcoholic infusions should be refrigerated and used within 30 days)
STEP 2 - Mix Your Drink
| Ingredient | Cocktail (1) | Batch (6+) |
|---|---|---|
| 1pt Floral-infused Rum* | 2.0 oz | 375ml |
| Fresh Lime Juice | 1.0 oz | 6 oz |
| Honey Syrup (50/50 Water/Honey) | 0.75 oz | 4 oz |
Mixing Instructions:
Combine all ingredients in a shaker with ice and shake until chilled. Strain into a suitable glass and serve “up” or over ice. For batching, combine all ingredients (along with 4 oz of water to mimic the dilution usually created by shaking) in a pitcher with ice and stir. Serve normally.
Garnish:
Garnish with a twist of lemon and a sprig of fresh lavender.
STEP 3 - Enjoy!
For an Added Twist:
Add a splash of club soda for a lighter variation; for a sweet floral lift, consider a lavender-sugar rim.
