Cuba Libre, German/Cuban Style
While in Germany, on Memorial Day Weekend, we went to a nearby town of Darmstadt.
They were having some type of festival in the city center. There was a stage, with Cuban music & dancers. There was also a bar, serving Cuban drinks, with Havana Club 3. So, I ordered a Cuba Libre for 5 Euro + a 2 Euro deposit for the LARGE glass. I watched them make it; they crushed one Lime, and put it, along with the juice, in the bottom of the glass. Next, they added a generous portion of HC3, Ice, and Cola. Garnishments of a straw, lime slice, & fancy stirrer were added. I've since tried it at home.
