ther for some drinks in a bar in Old Havana. A captain came in and ordered rum and cola on ice with lime. He liked it so much that he got the interest of the soldiers, who ordered another round and toasted “Por Cuba Libre!” in celebration of Cuba’s newfound freedom.
While technically, the Cuba Libre is a rum and Coke don't confuse this heady concoction with the plastic-cupped well drink you binged on in college. This is the grown-up version. Use high-quality rum, a twist of fresh lime and a sturdy highball glass to make a proper Cuba Libre.
• 1 part rum
• 3 parts cola
• Squeeze of lime
Pour the rum into an ice-filled highball glass. Add cola and a squeeze of lime. Use lime wedge for garnish. ¡Salud!
