Come on down to Cuba, where the vibes are strong and the coffee is too!

Cuba’s drinking culture has deep roots and has been dutifully carried through generations by cantineros—highly skilled bartenders with dashes of Cuban cultural ambassadorship mixed in. Julio Cabrera, this cocktail’s creator, is a proud leader of the movement in the US and his La Trova Old Fashioned thoroughly reflects the vibrant spirit of his homeland. The flavors of rum, espresso, and chocolate make for a bold and earthy combination offset by the uplifting aromas from orange oil and grated coffee bean.

Julio is known for his infectious personality and mouth-watering cocktails. He co-owns Cafe La Trova, a traditional 1950s-style Cuban bar and restaurant in Miami.

Curiada recommends  for its deep, rich flavor, a perfect complement to coffee.

Production Notes

Each Shaker & Spoon cocktail kit features a fantastic original cocktail recipe created by an industry-recognized bartender. Regular winners of Tales of the Cocktail’s Spirited Awards and spots on the World’s 50 Best Bars list are often tapped as Shaker & Spoon collaborators, not to mention other award winners, cocktail book authors, credited spirits experts, world travelers, and TV stars.

Only top quality ingredients are used to craft these cocktails. Specialty syrups are house-made by Shaker & Spoon, created in small batches in Red Hook, Brooklyn. And they source the best for everything else.

The recipe card will guide you through mixing and garnishing the cocktails, step by step, and the glossary explains any unfamiliar bartending terms. Just follow the instructions, and you’ll create bar-quality drinks for yourself and anyone you’d like to share them with!
