50ml Bacardi White Rum

As Bacardi is in the name of this cocktail, it is a Bacardi only, white rum cocktail. In September 1936 a temporary injunction to restrain the Barbizon-Plaza Hotel and the Winel Restaurant in New York from selling Bacardi cocktails, without actually containing Bacardi rum was denied. Not satisfied with the outcome, Barcardi later won a permanent injunction when the case went to trial at the New York Supreme Court later that year.
