■MIXING IT UP PRESIDENcoTckItAailLs It’s election time and they always say it’s a bad idea to talk politics over drinks. But with this political season being so crazy and unconventional, maybe we can bend the rules just a little and have some fun! I’ve made up a few funny cocktails representing the current presidential candidates and attributed to them the spirits that perhaps best define them. You can make these awesome drinks while you watch the next debate, or even make it into a fun party! SASHA POGREBINSKY The Donald Trump Cocktail This is the classiest, most tremendously terrific cocktail that God has ever created. A few sips and you’ll be winning so hard your head will spin. This drink may make you tweet for hours on end, sometimes overestimating your achievements and physical characteristics. Mix orange juice with Queens Courage gin, rim with Rokz orange cocktail riming sugar, and top it off with the most expensive, extravagant, champagne you can imagine. The Bernie Sanders Cocktail What is a Sanders? It’s a passionate, no nonsense, consistently honest drink fused with the accents of Brooklyn and the mild autumnal tones of Vermont. And it will make you feel the bern, because there’s some infused jalapeno in there! It’s an independent drink. It’s the drink that makes you wanna scream “Enough is Enough, Isn’t it Happy Hour yet?” Throw some ice in a shaker, toss an ounces of jalapeno infused Brooklyn Vodka, a teaspoon of maple syrup, and some freshly squeezed lime! The Hillary Clinton Cocktail This is the experienced cocktail that gets things done. You either love it or you hate it, but it’s always been around and it ain’t going anywhere soon. It’s practical, and after a long hard day it will probably end up being your final choice. What’s great about this cocktail is you can change its color depending on your mood! It’s simple – vodka, any juice, and mint! The Marco Rubio Cocktail This thirsty drink is always on the menu, but it often ends up being your second or third choice. Mildly conservative on booze, this mojito only packs 2 parts rum instead of the usual four. Add six leaves of mint, 2 teaspoons of sugar, soda water, and some freshly squeezed lime juice! This drink has a tendency to induce sweat and uncontrollable thirst! The Ted Cruz Cocktail Tequilla. Just straight tequila. Late at night. All alone. The John Kasich Cocktail This drink gets along with other drinks, unless you’re a teacher’s union. It’s your dad’s traditional conservative drink that’s easy enough for everyone to swallow – whiskey on rocks, a little bit of orange bitters, a maraschino cherry.
