Made legendary by Ernest Hemingway. Made best by Cuba Libre.

Cuba Libres classic and eclectic house-crafted specialty cocktails.

G P

The Classic
9.25 46.25
We press imported sugarcane to extract its juice (called guarapo),
squeeze juice from fresh limes, and tear the leaves of hierba buena
(Cuban mint) to release their flavor. We add Cuba Libre White Rum
and a splash of soda and shake to make the worlds most
refreshing highball.
All of Cuba Libres specialty mojitos spring from this classic recipe.
