Made with the tasty trinity of rum, lime and sugar (with ice), the daquiri dovetails strength, sourness and sweetness. Here’s how this 125 year-old cocktail came to be
Well, 2023 marks 100 years since Ernest Hemingway’s work was first published. So let’s go with his favourite cocktail — the daiquiri. Made with the tasty trinity of rum, lime and sugar , it deftly dovetails strength, sourness and sweetness. What’s more, this year is the 125th anniversary of its invention.Back in 1898, a US engineer named Jennings Stockton Cox Jr was stationed in the southern Cuban town of Daiquiri, working for the Pennsylvania Steel Company.
As Hemingway is reputed to have said about his favourite drink: “It shouldn’t taste of rum, it shouldn’t taste of lime and it shouldn’t taste of sugar. It should just taste of daiquiri.”Please be respectful of copyright. Unauthorized use is prohibited.
