Banana Daiquiri (frozen)
🥃 Serve in: Coupe Glass
Gold rum and banana liqueur meet real banana here, blended with lime juice and a touch of syrup and a pinch of xanthan gum for a smooth, stable texture. That xanthan gum keeps the drink from separating or turning icy -- a trick modern bartenders borrowed straight from food science. Sweet, tropical, and refreshing, it's built for hot-weather sipping. A more serious, technique-driven take on the frozen daiquiris found at every beach bar.
