Better late than never.

Cliches might be tired but they got that way because their truth has been passed along for so long. That cliché couldn’t be more cogent than to the mixology movement that’s only recently caught on in Oklahoma City.

When Heather Warlick-Moore and I were discussing the city’s signature drinks, it quickly became apparent the list was short in both quantity and quality. Listen, I’ve rocked my share of Lunchboxes at Edna’s — and done it happily — but Coors Light plus Amaretto and orange juice isn’t a libation bound for the Cocktail Hall of Fame.
