Cuba Libre (Rum & Coke) Cocktail Recipe

Cuba Libre translated means “Free Cuba” and was popularized around the end of the Spanish American War. This mixed drink is similar to a Rum & Coke, but the addition of fresh lime juice lightens up the drink and defines the Cuba Libre. It's an easy drink to remember and popular enough that it would be good to add it to the drinks to know list.


Ingredients:

    * 1/2 lime
    * 2 oz light rum
