Hot, Dark & Stormy
Whether you’ve snuggled up on your favourite chair by the stove, or settled around a bonfire on the shoreline, a warming mug of tea with a boozy kick will keep the winter chill at bay. This has all the flavours of a classic Dark & Stormy, but is infused with fresh ginger, cloves and honey. I can’t wait for winter!
