Dark and Stormy Daniels Cocktail at Gramps. Michael Avenatti, the attorney for Stormy Daniels, has filed a lawsuit to throw out a nondisclosure agreement the adult film star signed in exchange for $130,000. Daniels claims she has "tangible items and photos" to prove she had an affair with Donald Trump in 2006 while his wife Melania was home with their infant son, Barron. Daniels has set up a legal fund, and helping the actress get justice is only a cocktail away. Gramps Wynwood will donate $1 from every Dark and Stormy Daniels cocktail to Daniels' legal fund. The libation, Gramps' Adam Gersten says, is a cross between a traditional Dark and Stormy and a bourbon bramble. The drink ($12) will debut tonight during Gramps' happy hour and will be offered until "Daniels succeeds in court and she's able to break her illegal gag order or Trump's impeachment, whichever comes first," Gersten says. 176 NW 24th St., Miami; 305-699-2669; gramps.com.
