Drink of the Week.

I'm very happy to announce that TheMensFashionBlog.com now has a Designer Drink Guru. Collin Miller has created a fantastic drink menu for the Oasis Lounge at the Plaza Theatre here in El Paso. Using the films being shown during this years film festival as inspiration, Collin has mixed up something to accompany any one of your favorite movies.

As Paulina (TMFB photographer) and I sat at the bar, Collin made us the delectable "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious"; a carrot cake martini that is part of the Mary Poppins section of the menu. We also enjoyed the "Fred & Ginger" for the Top Hat section and another Mary Poppins selection, the "Spoonful of Sugar". He also used us as his test subjects for his deliciously limey Key Lime Pie martini, which is not yet on the menu.

If you're in El Paso, I highly suggest you stop by the Oasis Lounge, directly next to the Plaza Theatre, and enjoy a sandwich and (a few) delicious drinks created by Collin Miller.

Today, as Collin's first Drink of the Week selection, he presents to us the "Blueberry Muffin" from the Breakfast at Tiffany's section of the Oasis Lounge's special Film Festival drink menu.
