A twist on the Classic Daiquiri brings Amaretto to the mix with Dark Rum and Lemon Juice. This is great if you want Daiquiri goodness but don't have White Rum or just want to try one of the many different variations of a Daiquiri.As Daiquiris go, this one is on the sweeter side thanks to the Amaretto and additional Simple Syrup. The Classic Daiquiri of Rum, Lime, and Sugar can actually be on the more tart side, with the sugar only there to smooth things out. This recipe, on the other hand, is quite a bit smoother.
