It's T R I V I A Day! 🤙🤙
Also....it's INTERNational Dark N Stormy Day!
Sailors and cocktail enthusiasts rejoice, this year on June 9 is International Dark ‘n Stormy® Day. This delicious and potent highball was created in an accidental collaborative effort by a family of Bermudian rum makers and some seasick sailors. Members of the British Navy stationed on Bermuda in the 1920s brewed ginger beer as a remedy for seasickness. Some intrepid sailors began adding a dash of the locally made Black Seal Rum to the ginger beer, transforming a dizzy-tummy remedy into one of the most popular and widely-recognized cocktails to date. So pour yourself a tall glass of Stormy Ginger Beer with a topper of Black Seal Rum and raise a toast to the gifted minds who brought us this liquid masterpiece.
