Flowers for Hemingway

A few weeks ago, Dan and I were at one of our regular places and they were featuring a daiquiri with rose and hibiscus and soda water.  I loved the idea, but the rose was fairly overpowering (I think they used about half a barspoon of rose water), and they used soda water in it which I wasn't too crazy about, and I was missing the hibiscus and lime completely.  I decided I adored the idea so much that I just had to make it work for myself.  As for the name, this isn't really a twist on the Hemingway Daiquiri recipe, but...since he has "his own" daiquiri, he tends to be the first thing I think of when I'm talking about classic daiquiris.  Also, as far as literature goes...I'm not a Hemingway fan, though I appreciate his contributions to our literary record.  My husband, on the other hand, does quite enjoy his work.  Regardless, Nobel Laureate authors always deserve flowers in their memory, right?
