Add all ingredients to a martini shaker filled with ice, shake 20 to 30 seconds.
Strain through a fine mesh strainer (to remove any ice particles) into a chilled lowball glass.
Serve garnished with a slice of lime. Enjoy!
Recipe Notes
For a slightly less sweet, more citrus forward drink, use just ½ ounce of the syrup.For a Strawberry Daiquiri, muddle fresh strawberries in your shaker tin (prior to shaking) or cut the syrup ratio to half an ounce and add half an ounce of Massenez Wild Strawberry Liqueur.
