History:
Created by Constantino "Constante" Ribalaïgua Vert, who bartended at Havana's famous El Floridita (originally Bar Florida) from circa 1914 to his death in 1952. (He purchased the bar in 1918.) This is the fourth of four numbered daiquiris in the 1934 1st edition Bar La Florida Cocktails menu book from his bar.
Review:
Maraschino liqueur adds delicate notes to this finely balanced Daiquiri.
