Stirred Daiquiri

Lo-Fi-Aperitif-Stirred-Daiquiri

This unorthodox equal-parts Daiquiri variation includes sweet vermouth, with gin standing in for rum. “I’m doing a stirred version of a [traditionally] shaken drink,” Briggs Brown explains. Lime cordial and the subtle coconut notes in the vermouth help retain a “bright, zippy” vibe.
