the Beatles on Ed Sullivan – February 9, 1964

Many Buzzed Boomer will remember the first appearance of the Beatles on the Ed Sullivan Show.  Black and white TV.  Tiny speaker.  Screaming girls.  Parents longing for Frank Sinatra.  It was a big deal.To commemorate, here are some Beatles-inspired drinks.  The Ticket To Ride.  Juicy Lucy.  Sgt. Pepper.  Brandy Alexander.  Across the Universe.  Daq in the USSR.  The Apple Records Martini.  Luvly-Rita.  Ringo’s Drumsticks.  

Lots of choices.  Yet one of the most important beverages in the Beatles’ world and the one found most often in the recording studio…. Tea.  So classically British.

For something stronger, try the Sgt. Pepper:

Scotch

Splash of Grenadine

Slice of Jalapeño pepper
