Once a year excuse for draw from this hard-to-obtain bottle of Cuban rum. Light aged rums like this Havana Club 3 make for a much more satisfying Daiquiri. Light and refreshing.
Santiago Cocktail-2
Found this in the 1947 Trader Vic’s Bartender’s Guide. It is a light and refreshing cocktail that is influenced by Trader Vic’s travels to Cuba in 1937.
Santiago Cocktail-2
½ oz Lime Juice
¾ oz Cointreau
1 tsp Sugar
1¾ oz Rum
I made this with Havana Club 7 aged Cuban rum and it’s a very good cocktail. But it is missing something… something that could add a little more sweetness and complexity. Hmm… thoughts?
