Cuban Missle

I was reading my local paper (The South Florida Sun-Sentinel) and they posted a recipe by a local bartender for a drink he calls the "Cuban Missle." I know, it doesn't have a tiki name, but it has three different types of rum! Here is a link to the article and the recipe (just in case the link ever stops working).

Cuban Missile (sharing for two)

1 ounce Bacardi white rum

1 ounce Bacardi eight-year rum

1/2 ounce Jack Daniel's Honey

1/2 ounce Bacardi 151

2 ounces orange juice

3/4 ounces Cherry Heering

3 dashes Angostura bitters

3/4 ounces lemon juice

Combine ingredients in an ice-filled shaker. Shake and strain into an ice-filled, bowl-shaped glass. Garnish with an orange slice, a maraschino cherry and a sprig of mint. At Asia de Cuba, an oversize fish-bowl type of glass with a stem is used.

I'd say, if you can, sub Light Bacardi and Bacardi 8 with Havana Club Blanco and Havana Club 7 anos.
