Dark and Stormy

Ingredients

  • 2 parts dark rum
  • 8 parts ginger beer
  • 2 quarters of a lime fruit
  • 1-3 dashes of Angostura
  • 3-5 ice cubes

Notes

  • Dark rum can be e.g. Plantation Barbados, Gosling’s Black Seal, or whatever discount version. While it makes for a better drink with good rums, getting the right ginger beer and real lemons makes the largest difference.
  • The ginger beer is super important. Find one that is somewhat sweet.

Procedure

  1. Pour ice cubes, ginger beer, and rum in serving glass
  2. Squeeze both quarters of lime in the serving glass. It’s important that the limes are completely drained. Use one quarter lime for garnish
  3. Add Angostura to taste
  4. Stir
  5. Enjoy
