If you like ginger, you'll like this drink

 

 

I'm on a ginger kick and had a Dark 'n Stormy cocktail that was a little different from the recipe below. The one I had included Gosling's Black Seal rum, lime juice, simple syrup, ginger puree and club soda.

 

Has anyone ever made ginger puree?  I think I'll try this recipe I found online:

About Dark 'n Stormies:

Dark 'n Stormy is the unofficial national drink of Bermuda. Gosling owns the trademark on the actual recipe, meaning you cannot use a different brand of rum and call it a Dark 'n Stormy.

 

There is a variation nicknamed the Light 'n' Stormy which uses 10 Cane, a light rum.

 

Ingredients

• 2 oz Gosling's Black Seal rum
• 3 oz Barritt's ginger beer
• lime wedge for garnish if desired

Preparation

1. Build the ingredients in a highball glass filled with ice cubes.
2. Garnish with the lime wedge.
