History

According to the Bacardi website, the New York's Barbizon-Plaza Hotel was brought to trial in 1936 for serving the Bacardi cocktail with another rum than Bacardi Superior. The court ruled that "... a BACARDI® Cocktail must be made with BACARDI® rum". So here you have it: the only cocktail recipe in the world that's protected by law.
