Or how my Dark'n Stormy was never the same back at home.....
Many people return from Bermuda having enjoyed a Dark & Stormy & try to re-create it with non-Bermudian ingredients. This is invariably a fatal mistake.
Cheap rum from your local supermarket, combined with a watery ginger beer substitute really doesn't cut it.
Always ensuring you buy Gosling's Black Seal rum will be the first essential

but good intentions can be ruined by an injudicious choice of ginger beer.
Obviously, Barritts Ginger Beer is your first choice, but this is sadly unavailable in the UK. Email us if you wish to register your interest in some Barritts ginger beer. We are trying to arrange a shipment from Bermuda but this is proving to be difficult as Barritts are unable to supply the UK. As a result we will shortly be undertaking taste tests to re-create our own special brand of Bermudian ginger beer.
Luckily we have undertaken extensive research to find the best ginger beer to accompany your Black Seal Rum. After many arduous months of testing we can provide some recommendations to bring the best out of your Black Seal.
The next best alternatives are the specialty ginger beers, Old Jamaican and Idris as follows:
