Frozen Citrus

The Frozen Daiquiri is a blended variation of the classic Cuban Daiquiri, combining light rum, triple sec, lime juice, and sugar with crushed ice in an electric blender until smooth and frozen. The frozen format mellows the rum's intensity while preserving the cocktail's characteristic balance of sweet and tart. It is served in a champagne flute garnished with a cherry.

History & Origins

The original Daiquiri was created in the late 1890s in Santiago de Cuba, reportedly by American engineer Jennings Cox and mining colleague Pagliuchi, who combined local rum with lime juice and sugar. The frozen variation became popular after Constantino Ribalaigua Vert of La Floridita in Havana developed his blended version in the 1930s, which Ernest Hemingway famously championed. The addition of triple sec in this recipe is a modern refinement.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: fresh lime and light rum with a faint citrus sweetness from the triple sec. Palate: cold, slushy, and tart-sweet with the light rum providing an agave-adjacent spirit note and the lime delivering pronounced citrus acidity. Finish: clean, icy, and refreshing with a lingering lime tartness.

Pro Tip

Blend at low speed for five seconds then high speed until firm — over-blending will make the drink watery, while under-blending will leave it chunky rather than smooth.
