Cuba is a country known for its exotic fruity flavours, especially when it comes to cocktails and drinks. If you are looking for a Rum cocktail that captures these incredible Cuban tastes, then the Blushing Cuban is a great place to start.
Of course, the one cocktail you would associate with Cuba is a traditional Mojito but this recipe leans into the fruitier side of the Caribbean Island with Passion Fruit being the focus. A combination of fresh Passion Fruit juice and Raspberry doubled up with matching flavoured spirits makes for a flavour medley and with it being Rum focused it has quite a kick to it.
The sweet easy going nature of this cocktail makes it a great representation of what Cuba is all about and just how different countries have their own unique thing to bring to the world of bartending and Mixology . You will not want to miss out on trying this one.
