Polo Lounge, L.A., invents 5 Oscar Drinks

[gus_tatory]

From the article:

"Most innocuous is The Nightcap for Good Night, and Good Luck, the ode to TV newsman Edward R. Murrow (a warmed blend of Kahlua, milk, nutmeg and powdered sugar). Then there is the tongue-in-cheeky Jolly Rancher, the potable in honor of the gay Western romance Brokeback Mountain (Ketel One vodka, Midori and cranberry juice). Darned clever is In Cold Bloody Martini for Capote (a bloody mary with Absolut Citron and Absolut Peppar). Taking the easy way out, though, is The Olympian (dark rum, cherry brandy and lime juice) for the vengeance drama Munich."

Dunno what they mean by that. Honestly it sounds like the best-constructed drink of the lot.
