When It's Cocktail Time in Cuba is a 1928 book by Basil Woon that captures the vibrant, hedonistic atmosphere of Havana during Prohibition. It is not a traditional guidebook but a lively account of the city's nightlife, including cocktail recipes, details on famous bartenders, and descriptions of sights like cockfights, scenery, and the social scene. The book is notable for including the Daiquiri recipe as given by Facundo Bacardi himself.
