From The Floridita cocktail book:

"in the beginning the drink was named "Daiquiri como Papa" or "Daiquiri a la servaje", then "Papa Doble" and finally it became "Hemingway Especial" after Constante Ribalaigua made the final recipe ( the one with few drops of maraschino)."

  • 2 oz white Rum
  • juice of 1/2 lime
