How the Cuban Daiquiri evolved through inconsistent recipes
In short: Explore the varied origins of the daiquiri, a cocktail that appeared in many different forms during its early years, ranging from simple lime mixtures to frozen variations.
This video examines the historical inconsistency of daiquiri recipes during their early existence. Depending on the source, these drinks utilized limes, lemons, grenadine, cherry liqueur, or orange liqueur.
The presentation highlights how serving a drink over ice in a Manhattan glass likely contributed to the creation of the 'Frozen Daiquiri.' While the 1938 book 'Famous New Orleans Drinks' credits bartender Constantino Ribalaigua Vert with the frozen version, the recipe does not appear in any of his own books.
