Bermuda's signature highball — fiery ginger beer cooling under a floated layer of dark rum and a fresh lime squeeze.

Ingredients

• 60 ml Dark rum (Goslings)
• 150 ml Ginger beer
• 7 ml Fresh lime juice
• Lime wedge × 1
• Ice cubes × 6

Method

1. Build the base

   

   Fill a tall highball glass with ice. Pour in fresh lime juice followed by chilled ginger beer.

2. Float the rum

   

   Slowly pour dark rum over the back of a bar spoon so it floats on top of the ginger beer in a dark layer.

3. Garnish

   

   Tuck a lime wedge on the rim. Serve unstirred so guests can see the storm cloud — they can stir before sipping.
