White Cuban
A White Russian based on rum rather than vodka. Tends to be better with a charcoal-filtered light white rum rather than a more characterful golden rum...

So simple, so delicious.

Can a suggest a new name that avoids potential race connotations? Like "Cuban con Crema"?
I really like an easy and delicious 3 ingredient cocktail - and this fits! I used Pusser's and Cafe Granita, and this was plenty sweet - no need for syrup. Shaken cream on top - delicious. I think Kahlua (the U.S. 20% ABV) would work great, and so would Tia Maria. Mr. Black would likely need some syrup. Serve this instead of a white Russian!

May I observe, as gently and politely as I can, that in your one paragraph you have, on the one hand, tsk-tsk-ed those who might want to refer to this cocktail by its neutral (ie nothing to do with race) name and, on the other hand, proceeded to blithely garnish your reference to a White Russian (no race connotations here?) with an exclamation mark. May I, again as gently and politely as I can, suggest that the "potential race connotations" live wholly and solely within your own mind. My apologies to our host for getting a wee bit political here but I am getting tired of this sort of stuff.

Made this with 50 ml Plantation 3 Stars, 25 ml Galliano Espresso, 5 ml sugar syrup, 25 ml heavy cream. Nice dessert drink that's a little boozy and not too sweet. I'm curious if anyone has a "favorite" rum for this...
