Celebrate National Daiquiri Day with an El Floridita Daiquiri Featuring Dos Maderas Aged Rum

Celebrate National Daiquiri Day with an El Floridita Daiquiri made with Dos Maderas Aged Rum.

The Daiquiri is often made with white rum however choosing rum with barrel-age character like Dos Maderas 5+3 adds pleasant complexity to this classic cocktail.

“The Dos Maderas 5+3 is a complex rum that has flavor notes not only of sweetness but the flavors of influence from the sherry barrel aging bring about a nuttiness and dried fruit component that add great nuance to the Daiquiri. The addition of maraschino liqueur brings about an interesting twist of depth into the very classic cocktail. Enjoyed shaken and up, over crushed ice, or frozen, the Daiquiri is a classic vehicle to showcase the beauty of a well-constructed complex rum, and this cocktail does just that,” shares Diana Novak, national director Craft Spirits Education and Development for Palm Bay International.

  • 2 oz. Dos Maderas 5+3 Aged Rum

One of the easiest, most colorful recipes to make is an Italian-style antipasto platter! A cold collection of cheeses, meats, marinated veggies (like artichokes), and a variety of olives is just the thing for a relaxing night in! What is An Antipasto Platter? We love antipasto platters for their sheer simplicity but also their dramatic presentation. Plus, they are totally customizable! Oftentimes antipasto platters can be made with leftover foods and served with crackers, pita bread or crostini ! The best antipasto platters are balanced in color, texture, and taste. What Goes on it? DAIRY: A good antipasto platter has at least two or three different kinds of cheese. We like marinated Bocconcini (recipe below) because it’s soft and creamy, but hard cheeses like shaved Romano or a great parmesan are good choices too because they’re tangy and salty. Ask at the deli counter, they can help you out and are usually pretty knowledgeable! MEAT: Use meats that can be rolled up and arran...
