It seems that last week’s abysmal Democratic debate has led many a flag-waver to drink. In that spirit, consider the politically themed cocktails at Brooklyn’s Last Exit. Feeling victorious? Smugly swig a Barack Me Like a Hurricane (vodka with sloe gin, Southern Comfort, and pomegranate and orange juices). You know it’s time to go home but you just can’t bring yourself to leave? Then a Hillary Sour might be your speed—that’s a whiskey sour with an Old Bay– and cayenne-seasoned rim. Fending off guilt for having taken credit for work that wasn’t yours? Then you’ll appreciate the recipe of light rum, triple sec, Rose’s lime juice, OJ, Sprite and splash of pineapple that is the McCain in the Ass. Our nomination for Last Exit’s next current-events-inspired concoction? How about the Awesome Speech, a blend of red wine (for the blood of Christ, natch) and good ol’ Coca-Cola.
