“Creative Confections for Woodwinds and Strings... mixing candies and cocktails with modern classical pieces... the American Moderntini, a custom-made concoction. ”
— Steve Smith, The New York Times

As seen on drinksmixer.com, AME's signature cocktail was first served publicly at Galapagos Art Space in Brooklyn, NY (DUMBO) on November 3, 2009 at the American Modern Ensemble's "m&m's" concert. The red, white and blue colors are inspired by the American Modern Ensemble's logo.
