Collective Bargaining Blue Cosmos

Washington-— The United Auto Workers will fly a banner over the Daytona 500 NASCAR race on Sunday, reminding voters of former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney's opposition to the auto bailout.


The Detroit-based union will pay to fly a plane and banner from 10:30-11:30 a.m. that will read "Mitt Romney: Let Detroit Go Bankrupt" — a reference to a headline on a November 2008 New York Times op-ed that Romney wrote opposing a U.S. bailout of General Motors and Chrysler. The union also protested Romney's appearance on Friday at Ford Field in Detroit.

Collective Bargaining Blue Cosmos

12 servings, 4 oz. each

There is no negotiating on this one; you have to shake it up to form the right union.

1 bottle (750 ml) lemon vodka (e.g., Citron)

1 cup blue curaçao

1 cup freshly squeezed lime juice

1 cup white cranberry juice

Fresh orange slices, maraschino cherries and lime wedges

Add all ingredients to a 2 qt. pitcher.

Pour mixture into cocktail shaker filled with ice. Shake well and strain into cocktail glasses. Garnish drinks with fresh orange slices, maraschino cherries and lime wedges.

Tip:

Classic Cosmo: use standard red cranberry juice instead of white cranberry juice, and triple sec in place of the blue curaçao.
