9:30 Coffee Break: Cocktail songs
by Anna Reed
February 04, 2016
For tonight's Films at the Fitz we'll be showing "The Big Lebowski" with musical guest PaviElle.
In the film, the protagonist played by Jeff Bridges ("the Dude") enjoys White Russians as his signature drink. Fun fact: In the movie, the Dude refers to the drink as a "Caucasian".
So for today's 9:30 Coffee Break, send us your suggestions for songs that reference a specific cocktail.
And thanks to Thomas for the idea!
