A Democratic Straw Poll...of CocktailsFour Seasons Hotel Washington, DC Serves Candidate CocktailsThe Democratic Primary season is in full swing, and Four Seasons Hotel Washington, DC has undertaken our patriotic duty of determining just which Democratic candidate is most popular as a cocktail, that is. Four Seasons' Garden Terrace Lounge has introduced a partisan lineup of cocktails that captures the spirit of each candidate. KERRY CATCH UP (Tequila, Cointreau, fresh raspberries and lime) DEAN'S SCREAM (Vanilla vodka, rum and coconut puree) JOHNNY E. GOOD (Vodka and Hpnotiq) KU KU WHO (Passion Fruit puree, Vodka and Lime) CUP'A JOE (Vanilla vodka, Bailey's Irish Cream, decaffeinated coffee) IRREVERENT REVEREND (Vodka, White and Black Godiva Liqueur and chocolate shavings) WILD WILD WES (Chivas Royal Salute and clove orange)
The Four Seasons Hotel Washington DC is conducting its own straw poll using the popularity of these cocktails to determine who's up and who's down. They will announce the weekly results each week until the Democratic field is winnowed down to one. The last Democratic Cocktail standing will then go head-to-head against the GEORGE W. MD (White Tequila, Vodka, Gin, Rum and Spiced Iced Tea.) The Democratic Primary might be shaping up to be a one-man race with John Kerry emerging as the front runner but the guests at the Four Seasons Hotel Washington are casting their votes differently. Our two-week-old cocktail straw poll reveals another leader: by a two-to-one margin, the most popular cocktail by far: Dean's Scream. A distant second is the Johnny E. Good. The Irreverent Reverend claims third place, while the Kerry Catch Up, the Cup'a Joe and the Ku Ku Who are in a virtual dead-heat toward the back of the pack. The cocktail receiving the least "votes" is the Wild Wild Wes? a straight shot of Chivas.
