History:

Adapted from a recipe created circa 2005 by Kevin Armstrong at Match Bar in London, England. The Dry Daiquiri started its course towards becoming a contemporary classic cocktail in 2006/7 when it was added to the menu at Trailer Happiness over in London's Notting Hill.

Review:

Passion fruit syrup is flavoursome stuff, and its fruity richness is used sparingly to greatly enhance this bittersweet cocktail.
