Free Cuba, cocktail name. Originated from 1900, it is based on rum and blended with appropriate amount of cola. Cuba Libre is a kind of wine, named after the words commonly used by citizens when Cuba became independent from Spain. 1902, the Cuban people launched a war of independence against Spain. In this war, they took "Cuba libre" as the programmatic slogan, so this cocktail called "Free Cuba" came into being. After adding cola, this cocktail tastes soft and is very suitable for beach bars.

/kloc-At the beginning of the 9th century, the Spanish masters who ruled Cuba had nothing to do, and they just wanted to make an aperitif suitable for people of their status in this rich land. Of course, the best raw material is sugarcane, a special plant here.

According to the principle of wine-making, they fermented the honey juice of sugarcane in a big barrel. After a while, the intoxicating aroma floated out of the barrel. It's as simple as that. Rum was born.

Soon, rum came to the capital Havana from Kadena in Madanzas province, where it originated, and stopped at the Havana Club bar opposite the cathedral. This bar is located in the downtown area and receives tourists from all directions. Since then, this kind of wine, known as the "Happy Son of Sugarcane", which can be mixed with various drinks, has become the most famous brand of Cuban rum. From 65438 to 0998, the annual sales volume exceeded one million cases.

Although rum can be mixed with all kinds of drinks, the most famous cocktail is "Free Cuba". There is another interesting story about the origin and evolution of this cocktail. 65,438+000 years ago, when the Cuban people were calling for independence, in order to gain enough physical strength to defeat the Spanish colonial army, revolutionary soldiers added coffee, honey and white wine to their favorite rum, thus maintaining the fragrance of the wine, but not intoxicating. So they gave this unique cocktail a revolutionary name-"Free Cuba".
