History:

Adapted from a drink created in 2013 at the Rum Kitchen, Notting Hill, London. The name 'Cox' is a common theme to this drink:

1. It is inspired by the Perfect Lady, a classic cocktail created in 1936 by Sidney Cox, a bartender at the Grosvenor House, London for The British Empire Cocktail Competition where it took the 1st Prize.

2. The original Daiquiri, said to be created in 1898 by Jennings Cox, an American mining engineer working at a tin mine near the Cuban town of Daiquiri.

3. Most importantly, this drink was created and named to honour the fabulous Hannah Sharman-Cox of London Cocktail Week fame.

Found this excellent. Beautiful blue colour and great flavours. The quality of your blue curacao will impact the flavour as some are just better than coloured, flavoured alcoholic syrup. We used The Original Curacao which is the only one made on the island of Curacao. Perfectly balanced and a light hint of orange. On my favourites.
