Way back in the year 2000, the grand task of creating the world's finest drink began at the Crooked Cue.  After many nights of trial and error, the final form was entered into the drink menu and signed by the original inventors.  It's name... The Boston Lee.  The significance of the name is mostly unknown, though the legends speak of an occurrence during summer solstice as the  main source for inspiration.

Shortly there after, hundreds of people regularly made the historic voyage  night after night to the Crooked Cue to partake in the wondrous 4oz Boston Lee.  This was perhaps the greatest time throughout all of history, a time where friends regularly gathered, Boston Lee's were served, and best of all, the price was significantly below cost.

Unfortunately all good things, and in this case great things, must come to an end.   Management learned of the grand Boston Lee, and decided it needed to be stopped.  There were many reasons for this, some of which included the amount of alcohol patrons were consuming (1 drink was 4 ounces after all), the high maintenance requirement of the cheep blenders for making ice, and the lack of profits (didn't I say the drinks were cheep).

And so, the patrons were asked to stop consuming the Boston Lee on such a regular basis, and to select a single day to honour and consume the drink.  That day, hence forth known as Boston Lee Day was Friday the 13th.

For many years now, Friday the 13th has been a grand celebration of the Boston Lee.  Celebrations include:

And now, the part you've all been waiting for; the Boston Lee recipe.  I've modified this slightly so you can enjoy it at home using a common blender.

The ingredients:

From Left to right - Cherry Whisky, Peach Schnapps, Coconut Rum, Limon Rum, Golden Pear.

1. Measure two ounces each of all ingredients except for the cherry whisky into your blender.
2. Fill blender right to the top with ice
3. run blender on high until the ice has been finely crushed
4. Open the blender, and top off with Orange Juice
5. Blend again to mix in the Orange Juice
6. Pour into glasses
7. Splash each glass with some Cherry Whisky and add a straw
   
8. Drink
9. Repeat

  Just a quick comment. We no longer celebrate Boston Lee Day at the Crooked Cue, as the fine establishment has been sold, the name changed, and the staff that made the event so special are no longer employed there. To go along with a change of venue we decided to change the name. We now celebrate Boston Lee Appreciation Day, or BLAD as it is sometimes referred to by the text messaging facebookers. Not me of course.
