Simply had the ingredients on hand & thought I want to make my own cocktail today. It was warm out and the bananas on my counter looked good. I never made a banana daiquiri before. I really enjoy fresh fruit cocktails. Especially if there’s a twist that doesn’t necessarily sound like it might work well. My good friend brought a bottle of rum back from Hawaii for me & I wanted to use it something(also works well with Caribbean or Jamaican rum, preferably not pot stilled). I was pleasantly surprised when it came out. Then I made another with the Mescal for a playful twist. I was VERY happy with the results.
