Instructions
Chill a coupe glass by placing it in the freezer for 5 minutes or filling it with ice water while you prepare the cocktail.
In a cocktail shaker, combine the white rum, fresh lime juice, and simple syrup.
Add a cup of ice cubes to the shaker and secure the lid tightly.
Shake vigorously for about 15 seconds to properly chill and mix the ingredients.
Discard the ice or water from the coupe glass (if chilling it earlier) and strain the daiquiri into the glass using a fine-mesh strainer to remove any ice shards.
