This Sunday Sesh we are raising our glasses to the Daiquiri!
Although most people think of the Daiquiri as a sugar-filled blender bomb, the classic Daiquiri is made from nothing more than rum, lime juice and sugar shaken with ice and strained, takes its name from the place it was invented, the mining town of Daiquiri on the southeastern tip of Cuba.
The cocktail was invented in 1898, when an American mining engineer by the name of Jennings Cox created the drink to protect his workers from yellow fever. Both the lime and alcohol were thought to protect against the deadly disease, although there are also rumours that Cox invented the drink when he ran out of gin at a party and began shaking rum cocktails instead!
- So dust off that cocktail shaker and get in!

The kind of music that will drown and absorb you just through listening is pretty much anything to do with Jack White. One of his side projects, The Raconteurs offers up the goods with 'Salute Your Solution'.
It's time for a full playlist to kick start the weekend, and this one is filled with non-stop bangers. Terry Gilliam's adaptation of Hunter S. Thompson's, 'Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas', has become a cult classic that is visually incredible and the soundtrack is filled with killer songs from the 60's and 70's, plus Vegas style classics that make this a fun ride.
It's 2am, feeling alright, just getting started tonight...A bit of no-frills garage rock from LA based band, The Black Tibetans, is giving us those Friday feels in 'You're Cold'.
