Our current favorite tabletop accessory: the Black Manhattan.
-- 2 parts bourbon or rye whisky
-- 1 part Averna Amaro
-- bitters
Shaken, not stirred, garnished with a Maraschino cherry. We called them "Palermos" -- something of a pun, that -- before we knew they already had a name.
(we also use iPads, small laptops, and smartphones)
