Nice try, Cobie. "Triple marine varnished authentic antique swinging saloon doors." I remember that night as well. You were so shy.  Johnny on the rocks coming right up.

How about an "Octagenerians Cocktail"?
Equal Parts: Prune Juice and Creme de Minthe.
Poured over luke-warm ice cubes.
Tastes pretty crappy but it'll keep us old geezers from grunting in the old men's room...

Abin, there's California 50's and there's Rhode Island 50's. One of 'em doesn't need prune juice.

But since we're gonna be in California, I figured I'd just go along with the crowd.  Consarned Whiper-Snappers, always trying to get a man riled up... Rassa-Fraasen Kids!

A Rassa-Frassen Kid sounds like it's got raspberry liquer, club soda, rum and lime.
A consarned whipped-snapper is a whiskey based cocktail with cream and and something sweet - maybe just simple syrup and a maraschino cherry of course.

Make mine a Rassa-Frassen Kidlet - rasberry nectar, club soda and lime - and you've got a sale.

Rassa-Frassen Kid(let) and Consarned Whipper-Snapper are not yet official drinks of SHAKES. They've not been test-marketed or even safety-tested. I only apprise you two of this so that you are aware you have agreed to act as guinea pigs for these new concoctions. Are you game?

One Rassa-Frassen Kid for Cramer . (Semi actually makes the grown-up version but it's so sweet, he doesn't think she'll notice.)

A Crusty Curmudgeon is not something we get a lot of call for here at SHAKES. It's basically a brandly alexander, but made with clotted cream andfinished with a caramelized sugar crust (like a creme brule). We usually only serve them when the bus of senior citizens on their way to Miami Beach passes through Legion World. Are you sure that's what you want. If you do, Babette will help you to a lounger by the fire and will bring a throw to keep your knees warm.

I hope that's a single malt you're asking for.  Otherwise, you're scaring me.
