A nineteenth-century classic that predates the modern Daiquiri, the Knickerbocker brings gold rum together with bright citrus and a thread of raspberry sweetness. The result is fruity and refreshing without tipping into cloying territory, the orange curaçao adding depth and a subtle bitter edge that keeps the drink grounded. It's a proto-tiki sipper with old New York roots, best enjoyed ice-cold and unhurried.
