Cuba - A unique cocktail history...
Cuban cocktail culture became stronger after Prohibition in the States in the 1920s, despite the challenges of the broader political and economic difficulties. Today, the cocktail culture remains just as strong, with bartenders taking great pride in their cocktails, many of which have withstood the test of time.
Making your own cocktails at home...
This book shares everything you need to get started making Cuban cocktails at home including: techniques, barware, glassware, ingredients and recipes for syrups and infusions.
All of the recipes are easy-to-follow and include a lovely historical anecdote and beautiful photography, which instantly transports you to Cuba.
Having had the pleasure of visiting Cuba a decade ago, I read the book with great nostalgia, and I am already planning my next visit to this beautiful island! In the meantime, I'll have to make do with enjoying a delicious Hotel Naticonal in my London abode...
