This Month’s Cocktail:
The Dark ‘n Stormy
About The Dark ‘n Stormy
According to rum lore, the drink was invented in Bermuda and the name was inspired by the color of the cocktail. It is said that it resembled “a cloud that only a fool or a dead man would sail under.”
Originally developed and trademarked by Goslings, it has been attempted by many other brands, but if you want to be true to history, there is only one you should be using!
