Does Your State Have an Official Cocktail?

Now here's legislation I can get behind.

There's an effort afoot to make the venerable sazerac the official cocktail of Louisiana.

A sazerac lobby day in Baton Rouge, anyone?

I can only imagine what will follow in other states:

Janna Goodwin, a researcher for the National Conference of State Legislatures, said although Alabama has designated an offcial "state spirit" -- Conecuh Ridge Alabama Fine Whiskey -- it can find no record of any state naming an official state cocktail.

Will Wisconsin enshrine the brandy old-fashioned sour?
