Review:

A classic Daiquiri with aged rum and a hint of chocolate.

Variant:

Blended with crushed ice.

History:

Thought to have been created by Constantino (Constante) Ribalaigua Vert at Havana's Floridita bar, but in the Cuban book Bartender's Sixth Sense, the Mulata is said to have been created in the 1940s by one Jose Maria Vazquez.

This cocktail was originally made with Bacardi Elixir, a liqueur made by infusing plums in rum, but since the 1970s crème de cacao liqueur has been used as a substitute.

Production of Bacardi Elixir ended when Bacardi was forced to leave Cuba, but a small batch of around 60 bottles was made to celebrate Bacardi Legacy Competition in April 2013.
