Beverages

Classic Mojito

Cuba's most famous cocktail: fresh mint pressed just enough to release its oils, sharp lime juice, white rum and a long pour of cold soda water over ice. The key is restraint — with the muddling, with the sweetness, with everything.

Meat Dishes

Ropa Vieja

Flank steak braised until it pulls apart into long fibrous strands, then simmered in a sofrito of peppers, onion, tomatoes and green olives. Cuba's national dish — the name means 'old clothes', which is exactly what the shredded beef looks like.
