Daiquiri
Rum, lime, and sugar define the classic daiquiri; no garishly-colored slushies, please.
Hemingway Daiquiri
This recipe makes a drink--which, just to make things even more confusing, is also known as a Daiquiri No. 3--that is much less tart than the citrus bombs the Floridita was serving, and with a potency that's more likely to put you in a pleasant mood on a late-summer day than to steer you into a long, grisly night that ends with you waking up on a fishing boat drifting somewhere south of Key West.
The Best Frozen Daiquiri

The Best Frozen Strawberry Daiquiri

Gramercy Tavern's Expat
Sometimes on a cold fall evening all you want to drink is a bright, sunny cocktail to remind of warmer days recently passed. This Gramercy Tavern creation draws inspiration from both the classic Hemingway Daiquiri and Audrey Saunders' Old Cuban. It's at once tart and refreshing with a touch of richness from the golden rum.
The El Floridita Daiquiri was popularly prepared in Havana in the 1930s, and is a slight variation on the original daiquiri that's worth adding to the regular drinks rotation.
