What Exactly is a Daiquiri?
Thought to have originated in Cuba in the late 19th century, the daiquiri is a classic cocktail all over the world. It typically has rum, lime juice, and sugar. Exact proportions vary from mixologist to mixologist. However, the balance of sweet, tart, and strong is the key to making this beloved cocktail. Daiquiris are often served frozen (as is the case of this strawberry daiquiri) or on the rocks, and they can be garnished with a lime wedge or a sprig of mint.
