Celebrate National Cold Brew Day With Havana Club Rum

National Cold Brew Day Cocktails

We know there’s a lot going on with this weekend, Earth Day, 4/20 Day, an Easter; but did you know it’s also National Cold Brew Day? In honor of National Cold Brew Day, Havana Club Rum presents three specialty cocktails, celebrating the best of the Cuban brews – rum and café! Inspired by traditional Cuban coffee, we’re happy to introduce the Cold Brew Cubana, made with Havana Club Añejo Clásico. Añejo Clásico is a dark rum with robust notes of sweet fruits akin to pineapple and apricot, to complement the delicious ingredients of this caffeinated libation.

These rum cocktails are not only uniquely delicious, but also perfect for any budding at-home bartender to celebrate National Cold Brew Day, or for coffee lovers who want a rum twist. The Cold Brew Cubana combines a strong cold brew, ginger bitters, vanilla extract, and Giffard Banana Liqueur to create a tropical and buzzy libation.

For a Miami-based beverage, head over to St. Roch Market to try the Havana Café; available for a limited time on the cocktail menu at The Mayhaw. If you’re based in New York, Havana Club has teamed up with local East Village bar and coffee shop hybrid, The Roost, to bring you the Havana Old Fashioned; a twist on the classic made with cold brew liqueur and HAVANA CLUB Añejo Clásico rum.
