La Cuba Libre Recipe
1 oz Dark Rum (pref Cuban rum like Matusalem or Havana Club)
1 oz Light Rum (pref Cuban rum like Matusalem or Havana Club)
1/2 Lime
Throwback Pepsi/Mexican Coca-Cola/Other Cola (with cane sugar)
Ice

Mix and stir.

Say what you will about HFCS, it's flavor is not compatible with rum. Rum is made from Sugar and Molasses. Not HFCS.

1. I had quite a few of those when I visited venezuela. The resort actually
taught us a hangover cure in the first day orientation.
