  1. Twitter

  2. @AHAhistorians "Eric the Red" "Counterfactual Conditional Analysis" "Class Struggle" "Give us back our Eleven Days" (Cocktails) Not v good.
  3. @AHAhistorians The Elbow Patch, The Peter Francisco, Some Tasty Brown Liquor, The Gone Croatan, The Thing I Used to Remember #AHA2013

  5. .@AHAhistorians The Jacobite Rebellion - Scotch with just a soupcon of haggis floating in it... #cocktails

  7. History cocktails: @AHAhistorians soliciting names to serve at #AHA2013! (bit.ly/Ud6h4J). "Archive Fever" must be a front-runner..
  8. @AHAhistorians Cocktail name: The Defense. It's just a rattlesnake that your committee watches you drink. And it's timed.
  9. Some publishing-related #AHA2013 cocktail names: the "Scholarly Monograph," the "Edited Collection," the "Emerging Subfield" @AHAhistorians
  10. @AHAhistorians tweed and tonic; the Dead White Male; the Revisionist's Delight; The Spectacle (as in eyeglasses); The Grad Student's Lament

  12. Facebook

  13. Sazerac - is a New Orleans cocktail served only in NOLA; FYI - a place called Cure - is one of the greatest cocktail places in NOLA. One should (MUST) try Sazerac!!!
  14. The Triple Entente - vodka, cognac and iced tea in a tall glass on the rocks. Twist of lemon.
  15. AHA Today

  16. The Scholarly Debate
    - Erin 
  17. How about a drink commemorating Eric Hobsbawm, who passed away this year? It would certainly have a peaty scotch as its base liquor.- Jay
  18. Tweed- Vanessa
  19. The Revisionist – It’s an “old Fashioned” mixed in reverse order and served in a brand new glass.- Jason
  20. The Forgotten Footnote- Michael
