A Cuban sunset is cocktail made from rum and a mixture of lemonade, lime soda, guava nectar, and grenadine syrup.
The drink is made from rum and a mixture of lime soda, lemonade, guava nectar, and grenadine syrup.[2][1] It originated in either Havana or Varadero as a variety of a traditional Cuban guava-based drink. In Cuba, the drink is commonly served (along with either a Cubata or Mojito) as a pre-dinner drink. The Cuban variety of the cocktail commonly uses extra guava nectar in place of grenadine syrup, and the drink normally contains Havana Club rum.[1] Outside of Cuba, many recipes call for the use of Bacardi White Rum.[2][3][1]
