it was a dark and stormy tantrum hour

actually, it's just drizzling and chilly, but never mind – the handsome man and i recently discovered the cocktail that will see us through the summer. i heartily recommend it:

the dark and stormy

• pack a highball glass with ice
  
• add 1-1/2 oz (or a titch more) dark bermuda rum, like gosling's.
  
• squeeze in the juice from several lime wedges, running the last one around the rim and tossing it in the glass
  
• fill the glass with ginger beer (the stuff from bermuda, like barritts, is preferred over the jamaican kind; thank you, mr. internet)
  
• reeeeelax
