HOT WEATHER DRINKS
There is no known way of avoiding summer.
Even at the North Pole it gets above freezing
in the month of August-or perhaps it was
January, the Poles are so contrary-and so the
best thing to do is to drink beverages which will
encourage metabolism and furnish an illusion,
at least momentary, of autumnal comfort.
The drinks consist of Juleps, Highballs and
Rickeys, and also the magnificent John Collins,
whoever he was.
