  • Daiquiri Welcome back to "Cocktails," the podcast that distills the essence of your favorite drinks into stories, recipes, and intriguing tidbits. Today, we're shaking things up with the Daiquiri, a classic cocktail that's as straightforward as it is refreshing. The Daiquiri is often associated with Ernest Hemingway and the Floridita bar in Havana, Cuba, but its origins predate its famous patron. The cocktail was reportedly invented by an American mining engineer named Jennings Cox, who was working in Cuba at the time of the Spanish-American War. The original purpose of the Daiquiri was medicinal, intended to give the miners a boost and stave off disease.
