The Cuban # 2

The The Cuban # 2 Cocktail

The Cuban #2 (also called The Bacardi Cocktail) was created sometime around 1917 in Cuba. There are two different ideas about this drink and its ingredients. The first is that this drink originally DID NOT contain any Grenadine and was simply a Daiquiri made with Bacardi. The Grenadine was said to have been added sometime during prohibition when it emerged in New York City. Some people say that the Grenadine has always been in the drink from its inception

Bartender Tip:

You can make a little twist, mixing not only Rum with grenadine, use only 30 ml Rum and add 30 ml of your favorite gin or different Rum to increase the botanicals inside.
