Which spirit is traditionally used to make a Daiquiri cocktail?
What spirit is traditionally used to make a Daiquiri cocktail? The short answer is rum, but let me elaborate a little. The standard mix is 9 parts of white rum, 5 parts lime juice, and 3 parts of sugar syrup. Originally, the drink was served straight up with a garnish of lime in a shallow cocktail glass. The word daiquiri is the name of an iron mine near Santiago, Cuba, whose owner liked such a drink and introduced it to fashionable clubs in New York in 1902. Gradually, the drink became popular in the World War II era because whiskey and other liquor were difficult to obtain, but rum from the Americas was encouraged and became popular. The rum drink of rough sailors became more upscale and fashionable. The opportunity to add ice, even crushed ice, affected the drink, making the “frozen†daiquiri another option.
