I had no idea Dark and Stormy was a trademarked name! Craziness. I don’t think I’ve ever had one with a lime, but it sounds great! Thanks for stopping by my blog earlier. =)

Hi, Natasha! Thanks for coming over. I thought it was a weird thing to be trademarked too. I wonder if Coca Cola owns Rum and Coke ;) I may have a problem with lime because I add it to so many things, but I think it was good in this cocktail. Let me know how you like it if you give it a try!

Ooh yum – you busted out the Krakken, I see! Sounds delicious and may have to try this today after a long week!
Your Husband’s office sound like the environment at EA Sports – always fun over there.
Thanks for sharing this at our “Best Of The Weekend” party – pinning!
Have a great weekend!
xoxo

Thanks, Claire! I hadn’t had Kraken before, but I love the bottle and it made a great cocktail!

just saw this now–am wondering if I’m unsubscribed as I didn’t get email notification? Will look into that. Love a good dark and stormy and am looking forward to trying your (cleverly named) version :-)
Love ginger beer and keep thinking I need to pick some up. Tomorrow will be the day!
Very cool about your husband’s office. Fun stuff.

Today (this whole week, really) has been nuts. I managed to get this post out but didn’t get the email written. Tomorrow will be a combo cocktail/menu email extravaganza ;)
