FIXES
Ardsley Cooler
Use large thin glass
Large piece of ice
Large spray of mint
I jigger High and Dry gin
I bottle imported ginger ale
Drink with nose to mint.
And the night shall be filled with music,
And the cares that infest the day
Shall fold their tents like the Arabs
And as silently steal away.
May Dame Fortune ever smile on you,
But never her daughter—Miss Fortune.
