Gosling's Dark and Stormy Cocktail in a rocks glass on a yellow cutting board with limes

Dark and stormy ingredients

There are only three dark and stormy ingredients: dark rum, ginger beer, and lime.

The name “dark and stormy” speaks to the look of the cocktail when the dark rum gets poured on top of the ginger beer. It looks like dark and stormy clouds.

How to make Gosling’s dark and stormy cocktail

The secret to mixing a Gosling’s Dark and Stormy cocktail is to add the rum at the end, on top of the ginger beer. This creates the illusion of a “storm” in the glass.

Garnish the drink with a squeeze of fresh lime.

Did you know… Gosling’s Rum, a distillery based in Bermuda, trademarked the dark and stormy drink name. Any cocktail served under this name must use Gosling’s Dark Rum to be considered authentic.

Tasty tips and notes for making an authentic dark and stormy cocktail

  • Don’t mix this Gosling’s Dark and Stormy cocktail too much before serving. You don’t want it to lose the stormy appeal.
  • Alternatively, you can make a “light and stormy” with light rum.
  • Have oranges? Replace the lime wedge with an orange slice to make an “orange and stormy”.
  • In addition to using Gosling’s Rum, you can use Gosling’s ginger beer for this drink.
