Quote

"Brian Johnson made up the Cranhammer and it's all these different fruit juices. A little bit of this, a little bit of that, and a lot of vodka.... We originally designed it for women, and now it's become a guy's drink. Just don't put in a little umbrella." - Bob Bennett, co-owner of the Casbah.
