Dark 'n' Stormy (Drabble Project, Day 315)
When I heard about a drink made with ginger beer, I knew I had to write something like this. The only question was which Doctor I would inflict it on.
The last thing the Doctor wants to do is to go to the party to celebrate Jo’s new flat, but it would be churlish deny Benton a lift, and then Jo sees him and he ends up inside, quite against his wishes. “Just long enough for a drink,” he says, and when Jo presses a glass into his hand, he swallows it before he realizes what’s in it.
“It’s called a Dark ‘n’ Stormy,” she says, proudly. “My cousin spent his holiday yachting in Bermuda; he says it’s their national drink. He even brought me the rum and ginger beer!”
