A Drink to
Call Your Own
Creating a signature cocktail for
special occasions or "just because."
BY ANNIE TOBEY

L

egendary American writer
Ernest Hemingway was
known for his affinity for
drinking. At the legendary El
Floridita bar in Cuba in the mid
20th-century, he stumbled upon
his first Daiquiri, requested
a recipe tweak and, over
subsequent trips to the Havana
bar, downed many of these
creations.
A Richmond-based club,
founded in 1788 and boasting
Chief Justice John Marshall as
a member, created a signature
drink for members to enjoy. The
Quoit Club Punch uses brandy,
rum and Madeira (a Marshall
favorite), plus a little lemon and
sweetener-a strong drink that
indeed packs a punch.
A signature cocktail is not

merely for the rich and famous.
In the 21st century, couples
on their way to the altar are
creating signature drinks for
their wedding receptions-one of
life's most memorable days. Katie
Mawyer Poppe and her husband,
Michael, offered a signature drink
to their guests.
"It added an element of
personality and style to our
wedding," says Katie. "Selecting a
featured cocktail created a unique
experience for our guests while
also sharing a story about how
and why that particular drink was
chosen."
For special occasions or for
everyday enjoyment, you too can
create a signature cocktail. Build
your own creation by following
some simple guidelines.
