One of the most favorite of tropical drinks! Daiquiris originated in Cuba in the late 1800s and came to the U.S. via an American engineer in Cuba - Jennings Cox. The rest is history. If you love them, you're in good company - daiquiris were said to be the favorite cocktail of Ernest Hemingway and President John F. Kennedy. Classic Daiquiri cocktails are served strained with no ice, but frozen classic flavor and strawberry flavor have become very popular over the years.
