Drink Recipe

Old Cuban

Name: Old Cuban
Prep time: 5 min
Yield: 1 serving
Cuisine: Cocktail
Ingredients: Mint Leaves; 45 ml Aged Rum; 22.5 ml Lime Juice; 30 ml Simple Syrup; 2 dashes Angostura® Bitters; 60 ml Champagne

A Mojito that grew up: aged rum, lime, mint and Angostura shaken together, then lengthened with Champagne instead of soda. The bitters and the aged rum give it a depth the Mojito never has, and the Champagne makes it elegant rather than refreshing. Served up in a coupe under a mint sprig. Audrey Saunders created it at Pegu Club and it still feels like a special occasion.
