The Daiquiri family is a family of cocktails whose key ingredients are rum, citrus juice (typically lime), and sugar.
It's likely that the Daiquiri came to be due to the Daiquiri's dazzling sunshine and beaches. Men blasted away in the mines of a small community off the coast of Cuba during the Spanish-American War in 1898. Jennings Cox, a single American engineer, oversaw a mining operation located in a village named Daiquiri. Cox and his workers will dine at the Venus bar every day after work.. d sugar in a tall glass of ice on then one day. He named the new drink after the Daiquiri mines, and the drink became a hit in Havana shortly after. Sometimes, someone else cut ice, and occasionally lemons or both lemons and limes were used.
Admiral Lucius W. Johnson, a U.S. Navy medical officer, tried Cox's drink and later introduced it to the Army and Navy Club in Washington, D.C., in 1909.
Although the Daiquiri is often frozen, mixing it in a blender eliminates the need for manual pulverization. A commercial machines manufactures a daiquiri with a texture similar to a smoothie, and they come in a variety of flavors as well. A daiquiri made from frozen limeade will have the desired texture, sweetness, and sourness all at the same time.
