Hemingway Special

A sophisticated variation of the classic Daiquiri, famously created for Ernest Hemingway at El Floridita in Havana. Also known as the 'Papa Doble', this cocktail modifies the standard sweet and sour profile by adding grapefruit juice and maraschino liqueur, resulting in a drier, more complex, and refreshing drink without added sugar syrup.
