San Antonio loves its Daiquiris, and isn’t above “slamming a Daiq”—drinking a full-sized Daiquiri in a single go. This fruit-forward Daiq is ideal for a Daiquiri slam, but it also lends itself to sipping and savoring. Amaro Sfumato, a rhubarb-based amaro, adds bitter interest and an enticing hint of smoke.
