Fête Créole - Rum!

The Casa de Cuba bar was constantly busy - I wonder why? Several different rum based drinks were available with names like Mojito, Cuba Libra, Planters' Punch and Daiquiri.

The lady in the small photo is preparing (I think?) sugar cane.

Rum, n. Generically, fiery liquors that produce madness in total abstainers

    I'll have a small glass of madness then, with some ice, please! Nothing wrong with a bit of madness, now and then!
