Ring the bell, it's time for Last Call, where JK Grence, bartender at Shady's, serves up booze advice and recipes. Got a burning question for your bartender? Leave it in the comments and it might be answered in a future column.

In case you haven't noticed, the Presidential election is just a few days away. If you're having friends over to watch the election results roll in (you wild and crazy animal, you), it's time to think about what to serve for drinks. Of course, I'm here to help.

If you've already read my party guide, you know it's best to serve only one or two cocktails at a party. As much as I'd love to have cocktails for my Libertarian and Green friends, the obvious choice is to have drinks ready in Republican red and Democrat blue.
