DARK AND STORMY



Dark And Stormy image

In 2004, William L. Hamilton waxed poetic about the Dark and Stormy, describing it both as "a drink traditionally associated with sailing and the manly habit of appearing to keep one's balance while determinedly losing it" and as "a spicy and spritzed two-legged, walk-the-decks kind of drink with a lime wedge perched at the top like a pirate's parrot." This version, adapted from Red Sky, a restaurant on Mount Desert Island in Maine, uses a combination of Gosling's Black Seal rum and AJ Stephans ginger beer. Simple to prepare - no shaking or stirring involved - mix one up and enjoy it on a sweltering summer night. And don't forget the lime wedge.

Categories     Dessert

Time 39m

Yield 3 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/4 cups flour
1/3 cup Dutch-processed cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature (plus 3 Tbsps.)
2/3 cup light brown sugar, packed
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
5 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped into small bits

Steps:

  • Sift the flour, cocoa and baking soda together in small bowl; set aside. Beat the butter until smooth in bowl of an electric mixer at medium speed. Add the sugars, vanilla and salt; beat 2 minutes. Reduce speed to low; add the flour mixture, mixing until incorporated but still crumbly, and being careful not to overwork the dough. Stir in the chocolate pieces.
  • Turn the dough out onto a smooth work surface; squeeze it so that it sticks together in large clumps. (If you need to, it's OK to lightly flour the work surface.) Gather the dough into a ball; divide in half. Shape each ball into a log 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Wrap logs in plastic wrap; chill at least 1 hour.
  • Heat oven to 325 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment. Gently slice logs into 1/2-inch rounds using a serrated knife (some will crumble; simply press broken bits back onto cookie). Place 1 inch apart on the baking sheets.
  • Bake, one sheet at a time, 14 minutes; cookies will not look done or be firm. Cool on pan 5 minutes; transfer to cooling rack. Cool to room temperature.

DARK & STORMY COCKTAIL



Dark & stormy cocktail image

Combine dark rum, ginger ale and citrus to make a classic dark & stormy. Once you've mastered the cocktail favourite, try our three twists...

Provided by Alice Lascelles

Categories     Cocktails, Drink

Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 5

50ml dark rum
25ml fresh lime juice , plus a wedge to serve
2 dashes of Angostura bitters
5ml sugar syrup (optional)
100ml chilled ginger beer (a good fiery variety)

Steps:

  • Put all the ingredients in a Collins or Highball glass over lots of ice, stir gently and garnish with a wedge of lime. 3 TWISTSOrange muleBring a sunburst of citrus to the brooding dark & stormy by making it with two dashes of orange bitters instead. Angostura orange bitters will give the drink more spicy, marmalade notes, while Bitter Truth orange bitters taste much more of freshly-peeled orange zest. Then make the drink as normal and garnish with a lime wedge. Minty muleTake inspiration from the mojito and mix up a dark & stormy twist with 50ml dark rum, 25ml lime juice, bitters and ginger beer served over crushed ice, garnished with a wedge of lime and a fragrant sprig of mint (for best results, give the mint a clap between your palms before tucking it into the drink as this will help to release the aromatic oils). Then add two straws and enjoy. Mexican muleTequila really loves ginger and lime and all three come together beautifully in this Mexican twist on the mule. Just make the drink as normal but instead of rum, use a nice lightly-aged reposado tequila like Ocho or Olmeca Altos - it will give the drink a whole new layer of interest.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality ginger beer: The ginger beer is the backbone of the Dark and Stormy, so it's important to choose a good one. Look for a ginger beer that is made with real ginger and has a strong, spicy flavor.
  • Use fresh lime juice: Fresh lime juice adds a bright, citrusy flavor to the cocktail. Avoid using bottled or concentrated lime juice, as it will not taste as good.
  • Garnish with a lime wedge: A lime wedge is the traditional garnish for a Dark and Stormy. It adds a pop of color and flavor to the cocktail.
  • Serve over ice: A Dark and Stormy should be served over ice to keep it cold and refreshing.
  • Adjust the ingredients to your taste: The Dark and Stormy is a versatile cocktail that can be adjusted to your taste. If you like it sweeter, add more simple syrup. If you like it spicier, add more ginger beer.

Conclusion:

The Dark and Stormy is a classic cocktail that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be enjoyed by everyone. Whether you are a fan of rum or ginger beer, you are sure to love this refreshing and delicious cocktail.
