Etymology
The word 'daiquiri' originates from the name of a beach and a town in Cuba called Daiquiri. The cocktail is believed to have been created in the early 1900s. Its invention is often attributed to an American mining engineer named Jennings Cox, who mixed rum with lime juice and sugar for local workers and guests. The drink gained international popularity in the 1940s and 1950s, especially among American tourists visiting Cuba. Its simple yet refreshing combination of ingredients makes it a staple in cocktail culture, and it has inspired numerous variations over the years, including fruit-flavored versions often made with blended ice.
