Lime Lightening Dark n Stormy
"Fermented pickle lime twist on dark 'n stormy using homemade lime and kaffir lime leaf ginger beer, dark Bermudan rum and fresh lime juice over ice, garnished with a lime wheel and flamed dry kaffir lime leaf. The dark 'n stormy dates to the 1800's and is an elegant two ingredient highball calling for dark Bermudan rum and ginger beer. This twist gives the ginger beer a strong lime flavour through infusion with kaffir lime leaves and fermentation of raw lime juice for a refreshing and bubbly ginger beer that pairs well with the spiciness of dark Bermudan rum. The flamed kaffir lime leaf garnish adds lime aroma and a twist of lime flavoured smoke representing a strike of lime lightening. "
