Daiquiri

Santiago-adjacent mining locale

A daiquiri is a cocktail made with rum, lime juice, and sugar, traditionally served chilled.

The frozen daiquiri blends these ingredients with ice into a slushy consistency, often with added fruit flavors: strawberry daiquiri, banana daiquiri.

Named after a Cuban mining town where American engineers popularized the drink in the early 1900s.
