Daiquiri In Havana, Cuba
Few cocktails conjure up the city of Havana like the daiquiri. Although rumored to have originated in the El Floridita bar in Havana’s old city, it was in fact invented in Santiago de Cuba, the country’s second city on the far side of the island, in the tiny mining town of Daiquiri. Like many fabulous creations, the daiquiri was invented out of necessity when a mine company official needed cocktail ingredient to offer drinks to his visiting friends. He grabbed some readily available rum, lime, mint and a bit of sugar and mixed them together. The result was an instant success. That is once of These Popular Drinks You Must Try In Cities Worldwide.
Herbata Góralska Warming Mountain Tea Or Polish Highlander Tea In Poland
Herbata góralska is known among foreign tourists as Polish Highlander Tea. It is especially popular in Polish mountains. Cold days in Polish mountains are long autumn starts early and winter usually drags on until April. In fact, there might be snow in high mountains even in June and then fall again in September, so highlanders and tourists visiting those regions need to have a warming drink. And here comes herbata góralska to the rescue.
This lush drink consists of a high-quality black tea, splash of rum, honey, lemon juice, cloves and ginger. Depending on the region, some highlanders add also orange slice, raisins, cinnamon, or even a few grains of red pepper. This drink is very rich and fulfilling, and it is loved not only by chilly people. Such lavish tea is perfect for long winter evenings when people want to cheer up. It can also be used as a remedy for cold, or a relaxing drink after a whole day spent on a trail. It relaxes sore muscles, so it is favoured especially by hikers.
Kalimotxo Or Calimocho Coke And Red Wine In Spain
Red wine and Coke on paper, these two beverages sound like they should never go together. Have a little faith as you mix Coke and red wine in equal portions in whatever glass you have handy. The result is a dark red concoction that’s sweet, yet dry. The Coke’s cloying sweetness is balanced out by the red wine’s bitterness, and these two complex tastes come together in an unexpected way.
The best part is that this isn’t some exotic, complex cocktail that can only be made by bartenders. It doesn’t require some difficult to find liquor. It’s literally just equal parts Coke and red wine. I’m drinking one right now in Istanbul with Turkish wine. Is it much different than the drinks I enjoyed in Spain.
Cuban Coffee In Havana, Cuba
Cafe Cubano is simply a Cuban coffee, and is most what like we know as an espresso. It is made in an Italian designed Moka pot and every Cuban house has one. When you visit anyone’s home the first question is if you would like coffee. Even if it is their last bit of coffee grounds they will offer it to you because that is the core of hospitality and socializing in Cuba.
Cuban coffee must be strong and it must be very hot. While many tourists drink expensive Americanos in Cuba for 2 to 3 dollars, Cubans often pop into cafeterias to take a shot of coffee standing up for 4 to 8 cents. However, one coffee shop in Cuba that has an amazing view is Cafe Maria in Las Terrazas, just a couple hours outside Havana on the way to Vinales. You cannot beat the view of the cafe that looks out onto the mountain range. She has excellent Cafe cubanos and if you’re willing to splurge you’ll want to get Café Las Terrazas, which is a refreshingly cold coffee with milk, cacao liquor, chocolate and ice.
