A daisy typically includes liqueur or additional citrus (like orange juice) alongside lemon, while a sour is usually spirit + lemon juice + sweetener. The Canal Street Daisy bridges both styles with dual citrus.
Fresh-squeezed lemon and orange juice will deliver brighter, more complex flavor. Bottled juice works but tastes flatter; avoid pre-made sour mix.
The original recipe as written does not include simple syrup. If you find it too tart, add 0.5 oz simple syrup and adjust citrus ratios to taste.
Serve in a coupe, cocktail glass, or rocks glass over ice. A coupe suits the elegant, spirit-forward profile best.
