A daiquiri doesn’t need an umbrella to prove itself. Strip it down — rum, lime, sugar — and it’s one of the cleanest, sharpest drinks around. But give that lime a quick kiss of the grill, and suddenly the sharpness softens into smoke and sweetness.
This isn’t a beachside daiquiri. This is a campfire daiquiri — built for the pit, where the lime juice carries char, the rum runs clean, and the finish lingers long after the glass is empty.

2 oz White Rum
1 oz Charred Lime Juice (halved limes, grilled cut side down)
¾ oz Simple Syrup
Ice
Grilled Lime Wheel (garnish)
Shake rum, charred lime juice, and syrup hard with ice until the shaker frosts in your hands. Strain into a coupe or rocks glass, then garnish with a grilled lime wheel. Bright, smoky, and sharp enough to cut through the night air.
