This Dark and Stormy cocktail is crisp, refreshing, and made with just three ingredients! Did you know that the Dark and Stormy Drink Recipe is the national drink of Bermuda? I mean, if that alone doesn’t make you want one, I don’t know what will. If you are a Moscow Mule lover like me, you will fall in love with this cocktail. It is just like a Moscow Mule, but made with dark rum instead of vodka. With the flavors of lime and ginger beer working so well together, you are sure to fall in love with this cocktail.
Other Moscow Mule Variations
My Frozen Moscow Mule recipe never disappoints, and they are way too easy to make. You can swap out the vodka for gin too! I love my Moscow Mule with Gin. I even swapped out the vodka for tequila and made a Margarita Moscow Mule!

Combine all the ingredients. Pour everything into two tall glasses filled with ice. Stir gently to combine. Garnish and enjoy! Add a lime wedge (or two) on the rim and enjoy.
While you can use spiced rum, it will change the taste of this cocktail dramatically. You want to look for something labeled “black rum.” Keep in mind that while all black rum is dark rums, not all dark rums are black rums. Whatever brand you buy, just make sure that it is one that you love. That is the best way to ensure this Dark and Stormy Drink Recipe comes out perfectly. You could also make a spin on this Dark and Stormy Recipe using ginger ale! This will result in a sweeter and less boozy drink.
