Que Libre
Serves 8
"I was playing around, trying to come up with a fun, refreshing cocktail to go with
the spicy flavors of global barbecue on a hot summer day," says Cat. "I thought of the classic
Cuba libre, made with rum and Coke. And then it hit me: rum, lime, and root beer." Que
perfecto! Use a high-quality microbrewed root beer for the best flavor.
Ingredients 1 to 2 cups (8 to 16 ounces) light rum2 quarts root beer 2 limes, quartered Crushed ice or ice cubes |

Directions
Have ready chilled tall glasses. To make each drink, pour 2 to 4 tablespoons (1 to 2 ounces) rum, depending on how strong you want your drink, and 1 cup (8 ounces) root beer into each glass. Squeeze the juice from a lime quarter into each glass, and stir with a spoon. Fill the glasses with ice and serve immediately.
