5-step Dark n' Stormy

We love a Dark ‘n’ Stormy on Halloween: it gives off spooky vibes, but in an elegant, moody sort of way. The black rum is full of deep, caramelly spice, and the ginger beer adds zingy heat and a light fizz. To balance out all that peppery business, we add a squeeze of bright, fresh lime juice. Our tip: Don’t skip the garnish! The sparkly piece of candied ginger looks so fancy nestled in the skewered lime wheel. ⁠
