About the cocktail

Cocktail Cuba Libre translated means “Free Cuba”. This drink is very popular and simple and also known as a Rum and Coke, but the additional lemon juice make it as a separate classic drink.

The drink’s name has evolved somewhat in both Cuba and the United States, where some choose to refer to it as a Mentirita, in an opinionated reference to Cuban politics. In Australia, the more popularly known drink is simply Rum and Coke or “Rumbo”.

60 ml White rum
30 ml Lemon or lime juice
Top up with coca-cola

Instructions

Shake the white rum and lemon fresh juice. After add some ice cubes and lemon slices into a collins glass. Pour the cold mix and top up the glass with coca cola. Decorate with a new lemon slice on the glass rim.
