The Dark ’N Stormy is a trademarked cocktail name (in many jurisdictions including most Western European countries, the Caribbean, America, and Asia but not Australia) owned by Gosling’s Rum.
This means that in order to call a drink a Dark & Stormy, it must be made with Gosling’s Black Seal Rum. If you use another brand of rum, you’re not legally allowed to sell or advertise it as a Dark and Stormy in most places.
Whatever you use or call it, it’s fun and tasty! Check out the recipe now.

Notes
- How to “float” one alcohol on top of another? Slowly pour the liquor over the back of a bar spoon. Start with the spoon close to the bottom and move it up as the glass fills.
If your liquids start mixing together, pause for a minute. When you being pouring again, go a little slower.
