Dark and Spooky Cocktail

From Food Network Magazine by Claire Robinson this is like a REALLY fun Halloween cocktail and the picture here: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/claire-robinson/claire-robinsons-dark-and-spooky-recipe/index.html is great! I love the Dark & Stormy drink that this seems to be a take on (made with Gosling's Black Seal dark rum and Bermudian ginger beer). Suggestion would be to give your guests a swizzle straw to drink this through, or just use white sugar for the rim of the glass or they just MIGHT end up with green or black lips!

Ingredients

•  black decorating sugar, for the glass

Directions

1. Spread out the black sugar on a small plate. Rub the lime wedge around the rim of a rocks glass; dip the glass in the black sugar, then fill with ice.
2. Combine the rum and lime juice in a cocktail shaker. Fill with ice and shake well. Carefully strain into the glass, minding the sugar on the rim. Top the drink with ginger beer and add the gummy spider.
