As an example of what I was talking about in this post:

This cocktail sounds kind of interesting:

The “Edsel,” as gassed up by Robert M. Nelson, entertainer and bartender at Cafe D’Mongo’s Speakeasy in Detroit, MI:

Combine in a highball glass:

■1.5 oz gin (alter to taste)
■1 oz. cream… or soy milk
■Top with Vernor’s Ginger Ale (the nation’s oldest soft drink, invented in Detroit in 1866)

From episode 123 of The Dinner Party Download.

And conveniently I happen to have Vernors on hand right now. It may get tried this weekend.

I didn't know Vernors was the nation's oldest soft drink. Something new every day.

Yup. I'm sort of surprised that [livejournal.com profile] purpura, her mom, or I haven't mentioned it.
