New Libation
I tried a new drink while smoking a cigar the other night and it was awesome. It's called a Dark & Stormy. I've had it at restaraunts before but never tried to make it at home.

You just take any dark rum, I used Sailer Jerry's Navy Spiced Rum, and then mix it with Ginger BEER. Ginger ale doesn't have the same kick to it as Ginger Beer. I found it in the Mexican foods aisle at the grocery store and I think that the brand name was Goyo.

The Dark & Stormy is a very spicy drink that seems to bring out the flavor of the cigar more to me.

Just thought that I'd throw it out there for those of you who have never tried it before.

No, Ginger Beer is not alcoholic.

vegasgirl likes spiced rum, we may have to try it. Do you know if bars carry that ginger beer? if not what would be the best sub?

Goslings Old Rum is my favorite. Awesome stuff.

its non alcoholic, you can find it in the hispanic section of the supermarket. I found it at some bargain grocery for 20 cents a bottle. much spicier than ginger ale. when I finally get back to homebrewing I'm gonna do a nice spicy ginger ale

Sounds like Vernor's Ginger Ale would be a good substitute.
