Cuba Libre

From Distillers Wiki

The Cuba Libre (KOO-buh-LEE-bray) is a cocktail made of

• 3 ounces Coca-Cola
• Lime wedge
• 1 ounce rum
• 2 ounce gin (optional)
• 2 dashes of bitters (optional)

Rub the rim of a highball glass with the lime. Fill with ice. Add rum and fill with Coca-Cola. Drop in the lime squeeze. Jones' Bar Guide omits the gin and bitters, but they are said by some to greatly improve the quality of the drink.

Commonly confused with Rum and Coke.
