BARBARA L. SALISBURY/THE WASHINGTON TIMES Jim Hewes, a bartender for about 22 years at the Willard InterContinental's Round Robin Bar, researched the drinking habits of U.S. presidents to come up with a signature drink for each. A favorite of President Millard Fillmore was the brandy crusta (left). George Washington (right) preferred a blend of Madeira wine with fruit brandies and rye whiskey.
