MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  When I was in Bucharest, people were drinking pretty seriously even in the mid-afternoon.  So while I'd usually recommend something aperitify for an afternoon performance, for this show I'll give you a solid cocktail that doesn't taste very liquoury, a Ward Eight:  pour 2 oz. Rye, 3/4 oz. each orange and lemon juices, and 1 teaspoon Grenadine into an ice-filled cocktail shaker.  Shake.  Strain into a chilled Martini glass or coupe.
