this guy is one of the best bartenders in the states at the moment. He spends weeks caring for barrel aged cocktails, and re-creating the way the old pre-prohibition bartenders made drinks. To say he doesnt care about the drink is slightly odd, just because he knows how to prepare a drink with care and speed is nothing to sneer at.

1:45 Check out the shake face, ladies if you don't know what a shake face is, its the face bartenders pull when they shake a drink, said to be the same face as when they climax.

The way this man prepares his cocktails...there is no love, its all speed. I hate it. :(

i will try this drink i am a Hemingway also!

The original recipe calls for 1/4 ounce of cane syrup, and 2 ounces of Havana Club 3 year white CUBAN rum. The flavor is not the same without it.

@midnightfury661 Please note the "jk" I included and the following comment where I explain it was a joke. Jesus people, it was a joke.

This sounds great. I cannot wait to get more Maraschino liquor and give it a try.

It was a joke that most daiquiris are made with sweet and sour nowadays, instead of fresh.

As he said, this is the 'Hemmingway Daiquiri'. Not a 'Classic Daiquiri'.

The sour has come from the fresh lime juice anyways.
