Island vibes abound in this classic highball.
The classic Dark and Stormy is a summertime staple that matches the molasses-rich flavors of dark rum with the spice of ginger beer. Lime juice can be adjusted to taste, but at The Stables Bar in Australia, they squeeze about half a lime for best results.
