    Dark & Stormy

    March 22, 2019 /

    Several years ago we were lucky enough to visit a friend in Bermuda. In the time share lounge, they had an honor bar with ingredients and recipes for several cocktails. I mixed myself a Dark & Stormy. Whenever I drink one, I think of sunshine and pink sand beaches.

    We’re currently on Anna Maria Island for six weeks and I recently had a Dark & Stormy. It tastes just as good on white sand beaches!

    2 ounces Dark Rum (I used Goslings)

    5 ounces Goslings Ginger Beer (regular or diet)

    Lime wedge

    Add ingredients to a glass filled with ice. Stir gently to mix.

    Enjoy while thinking of your favorite sandy beach.

    Cheers!
