Cristal, Buccanero on tap. Mayabe is another one. Who doesn’t love a mojito!!! Rum and cokes or Rum in orange juice. Rum is by far the most popular hard drink in Cuba for us. We had some real cheap Cuban beers in the city but I can not remember the name only the headache!!! Lol

I don’t remember bringing alcohol into Cuba. What is the point? I always always brought a six-pack of Nutellas from the airport. My friend too. A big hit with the Cubans.

Rum in your morning coffee is always a great way to start the day.

I used to really enjoy a good stiff Cuba Libre made with TuKola, or with Pepsi when I could find it there. But lately, I've switched it up for the mix - I prefer the Cuban Lemon Lime mixed with my rum now - Maikel loves it too. And with a slice of lime squeezed and dropped into the glass too. We had to think of a name for that new drink in Cuba and we settled on calling it a Canada Libre. Very refreshing! Terry
