Anyone who has followed this blog for some time will realize how much I love cocktails. It is a beach bar blog so it kind of makes sense.

I found this Plantation Rum recipe for a lemon daiquiri on Flickr the other day and seeing as how a Plantation Rum 3 Stars Daiquiri is my go to cocktail at my go to bar and any other bar that carries it, the recipe intrigued me. Plus, it was a really cool picture of the drink and those always grab my attention. “Ooooh, pretty picture!” The recipe is simple and consists of the following: 2 oz.
