If only we had a current Armistice to toast. Any patriotic suggestions? Garnished with a poppy?

I was just wondering about a Veterans' Day cocktail.

Since Veterans' Day is also (appropriately enough) my anniversary, I generally celebrate with champagne. But I'll give some thought to other options.

I just pour two single malts. One to toast and honor my brethren with, the other to sit on the bar for those who cannot be there.
