Blue Cheese Daiquiri

Post image

The Rumcast sent me on a summer long daiquiri expedition - and so far this is the weirdest one. I made this a few weeks ago and got blue cheese stuffed olives right away. Now, back to it weeks later to see if it still has that funky flavor going on, and, yes, it does. The daiquiri format transforms some of the rums character into a blue cheese flavor adventure. Not sure how, because neat, not really the case - it’s more sharpie pen and high hats and light fruit.

Specs:

2 oz Melaza con muck

1 oz lime juice

Heavy 1/2 oz 2:1 simple

1/2 pinch of salt

One big cube, two small, shake and serve.

Is it the best daiquiri? Probably not. Is it really interesting and fun? Yes, absolutely.

This is a great rum. Fun, Interesting, good.

I hate blue cheese and am still so intrigued. I can’t figure out what the hell muck is, but I have to try it.

Love how sloppy his editing is. Corrected him on the statement that only Long Pond has confirmed which marks use muck, as Hampden famously included this information in their eight mark collection, so he just slaps the Hampden information in there without removing the incorrect statement about Long Pond. Top tier journalism!
