Cuba Libre Recipe

Drink

1. 1

   Prepare glass

   Choose a highball or Collins glass. Fill the glass about three-quarters full with fresh ice cubes.

2. 2

   Build the cocktail

   Pour 2 oz Bacardi Superior over the ice. Add 0.5 oz freshly squeezed lime juice (about half a lime).

3. 3

   Top with cola

   Gently pour 4 oz chilled Coca-Cola down the side of the glass so the carbonation is preserved. Stir once gently with a bar spoon (one long, smooth turn) to combine ingredients without flattening the soda.

4. 4

   Garnish and serve

   Rub the rim with the cut lime wedge if you like extra lime aroma, then drop the wedge into the glass as garnish. Serve immediately with a straw or stirring stick.
