Origin
The Frozen Daiquiri was popularized in the 1920s and 1930s at Havana's El Floridita bar, where bartender Constantino "Constante" Ribalaigua Vert blended the classic Daiquiri with shaved ice, creating the frozen version. This innovation gained fame among American tourists, including Ernest Hemingway, who frequented the bar.
History
The Daiquiri was reportedly invented around 1898 by Jennings Cox, an American mining engineer in Cuba. The cocktail was named after the nearby Daiquiri beach.
