I consider myself a fairly knowledgeable mixologist, but I learned a couple of new and interesting things from the Cocktail Database that I was hitherto unaware of. For example, I'd never heard of a muddler before.

But I'm most impressed by the Mixilator which automagically generates cocktails via user-set parameters. I came up with a libation called The Clenching Tang:

Chill cocktail glass. Prepare as follows:

In pre-chilled cocktail shaker combine

* 1½ oz Muscatel
* 1 oz añejo Tequila
* ¾ oz apple cider
* 2 tsp Angostura bitters

Shake that shaker with ice like dice in a Baccarat cup.

Strain into chilled cocktail glass.

Add piece of peach.

Talk about clenching...I think I'm gonna need to drink a couple of these babies before I go vote tomorrow.

Thanks, Presurfilator!
