Cuba Libre
Basically, a rum and coke with a squeeze of lime, but Cuba Libre has much more of a ring about it. Zesty lime and dashes of bitters add layers of complexity...

Trust me and muddle 2-3 lime wedges in the glass before putting ice and other ingredients drink will be much better

Agreed. I like to do this in a small shaker tin with the rum (and a dash of bitters depending on how much lime I'm using), then strain over ice and add the coke, for a cleaner drink.
