Dark and Stormy with Reed’s Extra Ginger Beer
Remington is a bit of a rum connoisseur, er snob maybe?, so any chance he can mix up a cocktail with rum gets him excited. To me summer is all about light beers and refreshing cocktails. A Dark and Stormy is the perfect fresh summer drink – sweet sweet rum with a bite from fresh…
