What do you give a man that has everything on his birthday? Well for
President Barack Obama, we thought it would be best to give him what
any red blooded American man wants: a specialty drink named in his
honor. So after careful consideration, we present to you “The Obama.”
This drink is perfect for those occasions when you just want to hang
out with your significant other in a relaxed environment … no valet,
just bar stools and the two of you.
Ingredients
1 shot Patron
1 shot Hennessy
1 shot of Grand Marnier
Sweet and sour mix
Directions
Mix that together and sip slow … please sip slow.
Now you may be wondering how we came up with this recipe. Here’s the reasoning behind each ingredient:
Patron
Nothing says excitement like Patron. And just like this drink,
President Obama has brought an air of excitement to politics that
hasn’t been felt in decades.
Hennessy
For all of the color that he’s brought to political arena, Obama is
also the epitome of cool. No drink says cool quite like Hennessy — it’s
the quintessential drink for when you want to “smooth it out.”
Grand Marnier
Obama is a man of sophistication and distinction. It is our belief that
a drink created in his honor should be just as sophisticated … thus the
addition of Grand Marnier.
Sweet and Sour
This ingredient symbolizes the nation that Obama inherited as
president. For every great (sweet) attribute about this nation, there’s
something equally problematic (sour) that must be addressed. There’s
just so much to love and hate about this country right now.
The Admonition:
Now that you’ve been given the history behind “The Obama,” it’s time to
hang out with that special someone and have a toast to the 44th
President of the United States of America. Happy Birthday, Mr.
President.
