National Press Club drinks: Rubio, ‘Cuba Libre,’ Cruz, ‘Canadian Club,’ Trump, ‘Corona’

Washington’s National Press Club will be serving up drinks with an edge at a GOP debate watching party Wednesday night.

The “4th Debate Watch Party of Campaign ’16” will offer a drink for every candidate, and each has an ingredient that references their personality, profession or heritage.

Or, in the case of Donald Trump, it’s an apparent reference to his hard-line immigration stance and for Mike Huckabee his struggle with weight.


The $6 drinks are:

The Rand – Bourbon and branch water

The Rubio – Cuba Libre

The Cruz – Canadian Club

The Huckabee – Diet Coke

The Dr. Carson – Bloody Mary

The Trump – Corona

Jeb! – Budweiser, the King of Beers

The Kasich – Grateful Dead (Long Island Iced Tea)

The Christie – Boilermaker

The Carly – Cosmopolitan
