Dark and Stormy
Share
A warm weather cocktail we can really get behind, a good Dark and Stormy is the epitome of thirst quenching. It's sweet and spicy from the ginger beer, tart from the lime, and with a nice kick from the rum and bitters. Named a Dark and Stormy because when you add the rum on top of the ginger beer, it will float, creating a dark layer (the rum) and a stormy layer (the ginger beer).
