Sounds like it should be scurvy instead. Rickets is caused in children by too little vitamin D. Daiquiris generally have lots of lime (a good source of vitamin C).
There was once a doctor who always stopped at the same bar at on his way home from work and ordered a hazlenut daiquri. Because he was always there at the same time, the bartender always had his drink ready for him when he came. One day, just before the doctor was due to come, the bartender realized that he was out of hazlenut extract. Not wanting to disapoint the good doctor, he made his drink with hickory extract instead. When the doctor came and tasted his drink, he remarked: “This is good, but you can’t fool me. This isn’t a hazlenut daiquri. What is it?”. The bartender answered: “It’s hickory daiquri, doc.”
