Cuba Libre bttt!

RE: "Dr. Castro" ...shameless marxist sucks would eat sh*t off a muckpile for their cannibal heros.

And shameless limey marxist sucks are the lowest...they've crawled their way into public life all over the English-speaking world.

After reading their lies, I want to wash up. Seriously.

Hi, SD...If drinking a Rum and Coke will help liberate Cuba, I've been doing my part for some time now...and I always specify Bacardi rum. Technically I prefer Bacardi and Pepsi, I believe it tastes a little smoother. I skip the lime usually....

Not only a lime garnish - it needs to have some Rose's Lime Juice in it.

Hmmm. I haven't been to the islands, so I can't say. But I've never heard of that.

Apparently the new thing is a drink (I forget the name) with lots of fresh lime juice, mint and "blond" sugar. And rum.

"Rose's Lime Juice" - aren't we fancy? You really just need a lime, Coke, and some good rum. Cut lime in half. Squeeze the juice from both halves into a glass and toss one of the squeezed halves in. Add a shot of rum, three large ice cubes and fill with Coke. Bang - instant Cuba Libre.

The lime rounds off the slight sting of the rum. Of course, I've found that if you buy the Pepsi Twist you can skip the lime.

Hmmm.... Sounds wonderful OPH... A bit like the drink we call the "Skip and Go Naked"! It has beer in it for fiz though.... Fun things happen at two. I don't recommend three!

A shot of rum, and fill with Coke? I fear I may have been doing that backwards. ;-)

This is just the basic outline - the recipe should be modified according to personal taste ;)

CIA, Bacardi, Mob, nobody has the talent to commit Natural Causes anymore.

The Dr (I seem to remember) was added gratuitously by the New York Times some years ago. Fidel is even less entitled to use Dr than I am. (Ché was though.)

For lots of fun ways to support Bacardi's, head on over to the WebTender and have a look around.

Reminds me of the time I was camping with some friends and one of them managed to set his shoes on fire - wouldn't have been so bad if he hadn't been wearing them at the time ;)

Pro-Bacardi Bump. But the last thing I need is an excuse to drink more rum!

Make that Bacardi, and don't give me a hard time for no accent mark on the Si!

My aunt and uncle in Florida sold the Bacardi's some large agricultural tanks in the 60's. The Bacardi's ended up stiffing them. Needless to say it left a bad taste in their mouth regarding Bacardi, so to speak
