Drink Your Favorite GOP
he race to the White House is on! Stop by Topaz Bar for its Super Tuesday Viewing Party on March 6, 2012 as they serve up politically-charged cocktails from 5 pm until close.
The Topaz Hotel stands where Theodore Roosevelt lived for a short time while president, before officially moving into The White House. Sometimes the site is still referred to as the “Little White House.”
On the menu is a cocktail named for each Republican candidate:
Join Rick’s Tea Party ($9) with an herb-scented mix of green tea-infused Absolut vodka, Benedictine liqueur, lemon juice and simple syrup. A few more drops of juice and it turns into Rick’s Lemon Party.
The Romney Float requires little funding at just $5, for Old Dominion root beer blended with whipped heavy cream and a house-made “Salt Lake” caramel drizzle. Earmark an extra $6 for a shot of Root organic liqueur.
Newt ain’t a Georgia peach, but the Gin-grich and Tonic ($9) is. A twist on the old classic, Bluecoat gin and Fentimans tonic are topped off with a peach liqueur float. It might be as close as he gets to winning The Peach State.
Ron’s PBR ($5) is simply a can of PBR. Joint not included.
