Combine all ingredients into a mixing glass with cubed ice. Stir for 20-30 seconds. Add a large cube to a chilled double old fashioned glass (12oz). Strain contents of the mixing glass over the large cube. Express a lime coin over the top and drop in.

Editor's Note

Garret Richards reimagines the Cuba Libre as a stirred, spirit-forward sipper. Tonic syrup and lime cordial provide a bright, complex backbone to the aged rum blend.

This sounds like a brilliant way to elevate the Cuba Libre! Do you happen to have the recipes for the Grog Concentrate Syrup and the Lime Cordial so others can try making this at home?

This sounds so yummy. What are your specs on the grog concentrate?
