the bramble.

for obvious reasons, i immediately chose this drink the first time i went to the starlight room. apparently i am ever so hip (without knowing it, of course, since knowing it would totally defeat it, unless i was being ironic...right? wait....fuck. now i forget.), since the NYT style mag now says it's THE drink (and included a recipe for your puckering pleasure). maybe i should start saying i named bramble after the "simple and immensely likable" drink "that’s been called England’s cosmopolitan - without the S.A.T.C. taint." ahhhh, pedantry.
