Kick back, relax and enjoy the end of the year with this healthier dark and stormy cocktail. Easy-to-make ginger<\/a> syrup replaces sugar-laden ginger beer, slashing the beverage\u2019s calories<\/a>. Throw in some lime juice plus a spritz of club soda to create a refreshing and light taste. Ginger paste is found at most supermarkets, but you can always experiment with ginger juice. To make it, simply place washed ginger in a juicer, or go old school and grate it, put it in a cheesecloth, and squeeze.<\/p>\n
