A Lovely way to Hit the Bottle

The Ukelele Ike Cocktail
(Invented during the evacuation vacation)

For some reason there exist references to our hero Cliff "Ukelele Ike" Edwards being born in Canada. He was born in Hannibal, Missouri. Considering his up-and-down career (mostly down) and his rueful personal life, Little Cliffy had every reason to be bitter.Through it all he entertained the folk withginger and pep.

Fill a cocktail glass with cracked ice
add 4 to 5 splashes of bitters
add 2 jiggers Canadian Whiskey
top with Ginger Ale, garnish with lemon peel.
