DIY Summer Rum Cocktails

This Recipe Uses 'Chic Choc Spiced Rum' to Create a Spruced-Up Beverage

— July 1, 2015 — Lifestyle
Chic Choc Spiced Rum's recipe for a Dark 'N' Stormy is the perfect rum cocktail to enjoy on a warm summer night. The DIY rum cocktail combines the Canadian-made rum with some earthy ingredients that complement the name.

This sensationally spiced rum is made with six indigenous spices giving it a powerful flavor that is paired nicely with sugar cane and cinnamon. The Dark 'N' Stormy recipe is prepared with an ounce and half of Chic Choc Spiced Rum, two ounces of ginger ale, a splash of lemon juice for a zesty punch and sprig of spruce for an organic taste and sophisticated garnish.

Combining all these ingredients in a single glass with some ice cubes is the best way to enjoy a Dark 'N' Stormy.
