Giant cocktail: Cubans create world's biggest daiquiri

Old Havana's Floridita bar in Cuba has created 250-litre daiquiri to mark Ernest Hemmingway's 113th birthday.





The  best summer cocktail you’ve never heard of


Portuguese Daisy
Portugal, of course, is famous for its port, so it’s no surprise that porto has found its way into the country’s signature cocktails.
The Portuguese Daisy is made with 2 ounces of port, 1 ounce of brandy, 1 ounce of lemon juice, ½ teaspoon of superfine sugar, and ½ teaspoon of Grenadine, shaken with ice and strained into a lowball glass.
Try it out at Resto in Lisbon, which provides sweeping views of the city and outdoor drinking in the courtyard.
