Foodie Swellness: Bacardi cocktails courtside at Rogers Cup

August 12, 2015

Last night, I was lucky to take one of my friends to the Rogers Cup in Toronto to watch the Bouchard vs Bencic match thanks to Bacardi Canada. It was awesome to watch these strong female athletes play (I’d already caught a bit of Serena Williams in the afternoon when I was at Rogers Cup with CND Canada and Revlon Canada Pro getting my hair and nails Rogers Cup-ready!) and I’m excited to try my very first tennis lesson ever this weekend.

Courtside, we got to enjoy some of the delicious cocktails Bacardi is serving up at the Rogers Cup. I couldn’t find where their mojitos were being served, so I settled for the Bacardi Cuba Libre, which wasn’t settling at all because it was refreshing and delicious (and is served in this chic metal cup that made people stop me to ask what I was drinking, true story). Definitely have one if you’re going to the Rogers Cup, or get into the game and quench your thirst from home by mixing up one yourself, here’s the recipe!

Bacardí Cuba Libre

Ingredients:

1oz BACARDÍ Gold rum

2oz cola (bottled)

2 lime wedges

Method:

To build this legendary cocktail, fill a highball glass with ice. Then squeeze 2 lime wedges over the ice and drop them into the glass. Pour in the BACARDÍ Gold rum, followed by chilled cola, and give it all a gentle stir.

Cheers!
