Rye whisky poured over the crushed leaves or the red berry bunches of wild sumac (not poison sumac), then strained and pored over ice...

As an amateur mixologist, I love the thought of this. For example, the joke that went around about the pilot of the plane that "safely crash-landed" in the Hudson: the Captain Sully: Two shots of Grey Goose, and a splash of water.
For an Adirondack cocktail, I suggest this:
2 parts Tanqueray (some people find gin to be "pine" flavored)
1 part Wild Turkey
1 dash angostura bitters (lots of bitter herb flavor)
Mix, add a little club soda, and serve on the rocks (great suggestion!)
If you're feeling adventurous try to sink some blue curacao to the bottom to symbolize all the lakes. Plus it'll have a somewhat "bitter" drink end very "sweetly" like all fights in a new marriage!!

Anyone ever hear of the drink called Hoppes #9? It was served at Wildcliff Lodge on Cranberry Lake years ago... supposed to have been potent....
BTW,Hoppe was one of the owners of the Lodge, not a gun cleaning fluid...Be careful, don't spread invasive species!!

A beer cloaked in secrecy. An ale whose mysterious and unusual palate will swirl across your tongue and ask more questions than it answers. A sort of dry, crisp, refreshing, not-quite pale ale. #9 is really impossible to describe because there's never been anything else quite like it.Steve
