What to Drink...

The best way to welcome your guests is with a signature cocktail! Serve up one or two of Cuba’s most famous drinks, a Mojito, a Culto a La Vida, or a Cuba Libre.

  • Mojita

    Sugary, refreshing, and herbaceous, Mojito is a traditional Cuban cocktail based on rum as the key ingredient. It has a relatively low alcohol content (about 10%). Although Havana is considered its birthplace, the origin of this simple cocktail is still disputed.

    The components of the cocktail are added in a particular order: sugar and lime juice are gently mashed before mint and rum are added to the combination; the cocktail is then briefly stirred and topped with ice and sparkling soda water.

  • Culto a la Vida

    Originating from Havana, Culto a la Vida is a classic Cuban cocktail consisting of dark rum, cranberry juice, lime juice, and sugar. It is important to use dark rum instead of dry white rum because it is aged for a longer period of time, which improves the cocktail's flavors.

    Culto a la Vida (lit. Cult of Life) is typically made by blending and stirring the ingredients in a shaker before serving it on the rocks in a long drink glass with a lime wedge garnish.

  • Cuba Libre

    Cuba Libre is a Cuban cocktail based on rum, with the addition of cola and lime. In Spanish, its name means Free Cuba, and although the exact origin of this cocktail is still a mystery, it was probably first mixed in Havana in August 1900, after the Spanish-American war, when Coca-Cola was available in Cuba.
