Cuba Libre
Rum and cola gain a defined citrus edge from a measured amount of fresh lime. Building directly over ice keeps preparation simple; add the cola last and stir lightly to preserve carbonation.

Active preparation: 4 minutes

- 50 ml White rum
- 120 ml Cola
- 10 ml Fresh lime juice
- 1 piece Lime slice or wedge, for garnish
Instructions
