6 Ways to Drink like Don Draper for the Mad Men Premiere

Let's be serious: the only reason any of us really watch Mad Men is to fantasize about being as cool as Don Draper. And if there's ever any chance of that happening, you'll need booze (and ice, fetched by your secretary) in a glass, and you'll need it fast.

Make any one of these classics, sit back, and settle in for this season's premiere. (Really settle in -- it's two hours.) Who knows, maybe Pete and Trudy will finally work things out, maybe Peggy will out-Don Don, maybe you'll drink two Old Fashioneds and never know the difference. It's Jimmy Barrett logic: the more tipsy you are, the funnier all of this becomes. Cheers, people.
