Sweet serenades complement smooth rhythms and more intimate dances. The evening kicks off at 6:30 p.m. with a dance lesson in the Foxtrot and the &#8220;Fred &amp; Ginger&#8221; until 7:15 so you and your special someone can sway to the live tunes.<\/p>\n<p>Quench your thirst with the evening&#8217;s signature cocktail, the <em>Crabbie &amp; Stormy<\/em>, a twist on the classic that mixes dark rum with Crabbie&#8217;s all-natural ginger beer and a hint of lemon. The result is pleasantly spicy, but not too heavy for a warm night.
