National Daiquiri Day at Bird’s Nest at Blackbird

This Daiquiri Day at Bird’s Nest at Blackbird, we’re celebrating a cocktail with a rich Cuban heritage.

Born in the Cuban town of Daiquiri in the early 1900s, this classic cocktail was first stirred together by engineer Jennings Cox with just three ingredients: rum, lime, and sugar. Its refreshing simplicity soon inspired fruit-forward variations—bright strawberries, juicy mangoes, tropical pineapples—all highlighting the cocktail’s crisp citrus base. We’re celebrating with daiquiris that are as fresh and summery as the original.
