Daquiri: Recipe & Instructions


Daiquiri
This concoction is one of many rum cocktails inspired by Cuba, though it remains a mystery whether the original Daiquiri was named after the island's Daiquiri beach or a nearby iron mine of the same name. The Daiquiri surged in popularity in the USA during the 1940s - rationing made vodka and whiskey hard to find but rum remained easy to import from nearby Latin America and the Caribbean.
