This mixed drink or bartending-related article is supported by the Mixed Drinks WikiProject, a project to improve Wikipedia's materials related to mixed drinks, bartending, and related subjects. This article is off to a fairly good start, but it still needs a lot of help. It needs to have a good introduction, be well-rounded, discuss the origins and history of the topic, provide current information, give pop-cultural references, and clearly establish the notability and importance of the topic. Not every topic covers all of that, but certainly as much as possible should be included.

I added a mixed drink called "The Black Samurai". It was mentioned in the story "The Locusts" by Larry Niven and Steven Barnes. I do know of at least one local bar that serves such, and a bartender at another who gets requests for such on occasion. I don't know if this is due to mention of it in the story, or if the drink existed before the story was published in 1979. I'm basically adding this to the discussion page in hopes my post about the Black Samurai drink isn't removed due to "vandalism" since my intent is to add an actual mixed drink that has been mentioned in one publication and seems to have at least limited popularity. 76.178.143.249 (talk) 12:42, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
