Interesting list of every President's favorite drink

Thought some of these were pretty good

quote:
Grover Cleveland
Grover mostly drank beer, and lots of it. He and a fellow politician once took a vow to hold themselves to four beers a day. When they found this too arduous a task, they simply switched to larger beer steins.
quote:
Lyndon B. Johnson
LBJ loved Scotch whiskey and enjoyed driving (at high speeds) around his Texas ranch while drinking it out of a plastic cup.
quote:
Gerald Ford
Ford grew accustomed to a few martinis, sometimes even at lunch, when he was in the House of Representatives. When he became president in the aftermath of Watergate, Ford’s staff had to suggest he cut back.
quote:
Richard Nixon
Nixon would drink expensive bottles of Chateau Lafite Rothschild (costing hundreds of dollars); at the same time, he instructed his staff to serve mediocre red wine to his guests — with towels wrapped around the bottle’s label so they did not know what they were getting. Tricky Dick indeed!

For a minute I thought you were referring to non alcoholic drinks like Cole or tea.
I remember reading about how LBJ loved Fresca so much that he installed water foundations with Fresca running through them in the WH.

William McKinley
A drink popular during his election campaign was called McKinley’s Delight:
3 oz. rye whiskey (shoot for at least 100 proof)
1 oz. sweet vermouth
2 dashes of cherry brandy
1 dash absinthe
Sounds worth a try.

I listened to the Cracked podcast about LBJ where they played some of his recordings -- the pants ordering was one -- and it was fascinating.
Also, he would have all calls recorded and transcribed and he would read the scripts in bed before going to sleep.
He was definitely one of our weirder presidents.

I think people say "like a boss" far too often but he ordered those pants LIKE A BOSS!!!
