The La Bomba Daiquiri, a modern cocktail created by Joaquin Simó at NYC's Pouring Ribbons, is built on the classic rum, citrus, and simple syrup formula. It's set apart by shaking in raspberries and pomegranate molasses for a tart, vibrant kick—an explosive sip that lives up to its name, hinting at both the Spanish “bomba” and the French “grenade.”
Add rum, lime juice, simple syrup, pomegranate molasses, and five raspberries to a shaker.
Fill shaker with cubed ice.
Shake for 10-20 seconds.
Using a Hawthorne and fine mesh strainer, strain into a coupe glass.
Garnish with remaining raspberry and lime slice.
