Belmont Stakes

OK. Not exactly a travel question. But,since I'm unfortunately not going to make it to the Belmont in person, what's a "Belmont" drink. The Derby has the mint julep, apparently the Preakness has a drink as well...what should I serve at my Belmont party? Thanks for any suggestions!

IMHO that sounds really ghastly! Has anyone ever actually drunk one?

All I can think of are those tacky Harvey's Bristol Cream commercials they always used to air around the holidays......
I'll try anything once though! Thanks!
