If you happen across a sultry-voiced tall drink of water, run for the hills … or hire him for an acting gig — something for which he truly excels.

Busy as he was on a recent Saturday night, juggling customers in front of him and parties beyond, the tall drink of water managed to turn a couple of strangers — okay, my brother and me — into fans from the moment he introduced himself to us with a smile as broad as Dwayne Johnson’s and a handshake that put the pandemic in a rearview mirror.

I wished it could’ve been a nice tall drink in a real glass.

I added back in some soda water to make this a tall drink, because I like my mojitos with their signature fizz — and it helps to nurse this one for a while.

He was kind and funny and a tall drink of water.
