Havana. El Floridita, corner of Obispo and Monserrate. Open since 1817, when it was La Pina de Plata. In 1914 a Catalan named Constantino Ribalaigua Vert came in as a bartender, took it over by 1918, and is credited with the frozen daiquiri in the early 1930s. The place calls itself la cuna del daiquiri. Hemingway kept a room ten minutes away and drank here often enough that they put a bronze of him at the end of the bar.

The pour I'd call: the frozen daiquiri, the one Constante is credited with. My pick.

The word: cuna. Cradle. The drink was born there, which beats any list.

Julie. Name a city and I'll find the room.
