Recipe for cuba libre
This is a completely traditional recipe for the exotic Cuba Libre. Cuba Libre is the perfect combination of sweet rum, fizzy cola, and fresh lime, making it suitable for all parties!
You can make it with both light and dark rum, and thus the whole expression can vary a bit. Whether you should use light or dark rum depends on whether you prefer a drink with a smooth and light expression or one that is deeper and more distinctive. Both are truly delicious!
This is the original recipe with light rum.
