Ingredientes
Instruções
Build all ingredients in a Collins glass filled with ice. Garnish with lime wedge.
Cuba Libre é um Clássico Contemporâneo reconhecido pela IBA e um dos coquetéis mais populares do mundo, combinando rum claro com suco de limão fresco e Coca-Cola num copo alto sobre gelo para um highball refrescante, agridoce e brilhante em cítricos. Com 19,71% ABV, o ABV reflete o componente relativamente grande de rum típico da especificação IBA, resultando numa bebida mais forte do que muitas versões domésticas. O nome se traduz como 'Cuba Livre', refletindo suas origens históricas na virada do século XX.
History & Origins
Cuba Libre originated in Havana, Cuba around 1900, following the Spanish-American War and American soldiers' discovery of Coca-Cola combined with Cuban rum. The drink's name was a patriotic toast to Cuban independence. Its popularization is sometimes attributed to a crowd of American soldiers celebrating in Havana with the new combination. The IBA recognized it as a Contemporary Classic, cementing its place as one of the defining rum cocktails globally.
Tasting Notes
Aroma: Clean white rum, the sweet caramel-cola of Coca-Cola, and a bright, zesty lime note. Palate: Refreshing and well-balanced; the rum provides a clean alcoholic warmth, the Cola contributes sweetness and effervescence, and the lime juice cuts through both with its tartness. Finish: Clean, refreshing, and citrusy.
Pro Tip
Build directly in a Collins glass over ice, squeezing the lime juice in and dropping the spent lime wedge into the glass for additional citrus aroma throughout the drink.
