What is "Cuba libre"?

Cuba libre is a classic cocktail that originated in Cuba in the early 1900s. It is made by mixing rum, Coca-Cola, and lime juice, typically in a 2:1:1 ratio, and serving the mixture over ice. The drink is often garnished with a slice of lime, and may be served in a highball glass or a tumbler. Cuba libre has a refreshing and slightly sweet taste, with the rum providing a rich and complex flavor that is balanced by the acidity of the lime juice and the effervescence of the cola. The name "Cuba libre" means "free Cuba" in Spanish, and was originally intended as a patriotic slogan during the Spanish-American War. It is a popular choice for social gatherings and is often served at bars and restaurants.
