Nobody can really agree on when this popular party-starter was invented, although one urban legend credits Ernest Hemingway for giving the drink its name, after he mispronounced a recipe ingredient \u201cmanojito\u201d (mint sprig) as \u201cmojito\u201d.

Rumour has it, the world-famous cocktail was invented in 1896 by an American living and working in Cuba called Jennings Cox, when he ran out of gin for the punch and used rum instead. And since lemons were also unavailable in Cuba, he used limes &#8211; and what d\u2019ya know?!<\/p>\n<p>In the 1930s a frozen version of the drink was created by a bartender in one of Havana\u2019s most famous bars, Floridita.

This simple three-ingredient recipe is a classic example of less is more and has been a popular choice with thirsty locals and tourists since 1990. The name directly translates to \u201cFree Cuba\u201d in Spanish, referencing the country\u2019s newfound independence from Spain after the 1898 Spanish American War. So, there was plenty to celebrate!<\/p>\n<p><em>Ingredients: White rum, lime, cola<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>A great choice for: Rum and coke fans<\/em><\/p>\n<h4><strong>El Presidente<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2069 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.lovecuba.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Picture4-1.jpg\" alt=\"Cuba\u2019s most famous cocktails - El Presidente\" width=\"1207\" height=\"805\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovecuba.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Picture4-1.jpg 1207w, https:\/\/www.lovecuba.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Picture4-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lovecuba.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Picture4-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.lovecuba.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Picture4-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lovecuba.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Picture4-1-750x500.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.lovecuba.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Picture4-1-1140x760.jpg 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1207px) 100vw, 1207px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Named in honour of the former Cuban President Gerardo Machado, this 1920s classic is a sophisticated sip that was popular during the President\u2019s reign. It may not be as sought-after as the Mojito or Daiquiri, but it\u2019s boozy and subtly bitter with a citrus orange flavour &#8211; making it a hit with locals and tourists looking to unwind after a busy day in the city (or, let\u2019s face it, a chilled day on the sand).<\/p>\n<p><em>Ingredients: Aged rum, vermouth blanc, orange liqueur (Cura\u00e7ao), grenadine<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>A great choice for: Those who prefer bitter, instead of sweet.<\/em><\/p>\n<h4><strong>Culto a la Vida<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2070 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.lovecuba.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Picture5-1.jpg\" alt=\"Cuba\u2019s most famous cocktails - Culto a la Vida\" width=\"431\" height=\"634\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovecuba.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Picture5-1.jpg 431w, https:\/\/www.lovecuba.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Picture5-1-204x300.jpg 204w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 431px) 100vw, 431px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Shakers at the ready.

Tasting similar to a modern-day spiced rum cocktail (watch out Captain Morgan), this popular short drink is on the menu at many of the island\u2019s cocktail bars. Typically made with rum, sugar, water, and nutmeg or cinnamon, this recipe is often mixed up with additional ingredients such as coconut water and tropical fruit juice for a slightly different flavour.
