To make Cola syrup (house made):
Pour 1.5 litres of cola (3 pints) into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 30 minutes or until the liquid has reduced by half. Remove from the heat and while the cola is still hot, add 250 grams (8.75 ounces) white caster sugar and stir to ensure dissolved. Once chilled, fine strain into a sterilised glass container and refrigerate. Use within 4 weeks.
History:
Swedish Bacardí Legacy 2013 winning cocktail created by Boudy Ghostine at Miss Voon in Stockholm, Sweden. Boudy says, "Two classic drinks that were invented in Cuba inspired me: the Original Daiquiri with Bacardí Carta Blanca and the Cuba Libre with Bacardí Oro. All the ingredients in the cocktail have a connection or a bond with the Latin culture: the rum was originally made in Cuba and is now made now in Puerto Rico; Coca Cola came to Cuba around 1900 and was used to make the Cuba Libre, Mexican or Brazilian lime fruit and finally sherry, a tribute to Don Facundo who was a wine merchant. I present to you the Latin Quarter cocktail, a future classic with a great history behind it."
