Daiquiri
Daiquiri
This is one of the oldest and most basic cocktails to know. Not only because it is popular, but because for the consumer it is easy to approach and delicious.  Once you know how to make this cocktail you can basically make a half dozen others like the Margarita (Just replace rum with tequila); if you want a Gimlet, just replace the rum with gin or vodka; if you want a whiskey sour, just replace the rum with whiskey. If you want to get more adventurous, use the Brazilian cachaça and you have a Caipirinha. Just by memorizing this, even the newest most inexperienced bartenders have a solid base for some of the world’s most popular drinks.
