Ingredients
Instructions
Chill the glass. Place your highball glass in the freezer for 5 minutes. Note: A cold glass helps maintain carbonation.
Fill the chilled glass to the brim with large ice cubes.
Pour 4 oz spicy ginger beer into the glass until the glass is about three quarters full.
Pour 0.5 oz fresh lime juice directly over the ice.
Hold a bar spoon just above the surface of the ginger beer, concave side down. Slowly pour 2 ounces of dark rum over the back of the spoon to create the signature layered 'storm' visual.
Squeeze the lime wedge over the top to release essential oils, then drop it into the glass to garnish.
Let the drink sit for 10 seconds until the rum starts to 'bleed' into the ginger beer.
