Sitting on the deck, sipping a Daiquiri. It sounds so refreshing and little tropical, too. But you don't have to travel to the Carribean to enjoy the delicious citrus flavors of this rum creation.
What's a Daiquiri? Basically, a family of cocktails whose main ingredients are rum, citrus juice, and sugar or another sweetener. Rum is often associated with the tropical islands where it originates. And, (this may surprise you) not all Daiquiris are sticky frozen concoctions. A "classic" means fresh, sweet and tart. If you are feeling literary, you may be delighted to learn that the Daiquiri was the favorite of Ernest Hemingway.
