You surf around the web long enough and you see that there are "theme" drink days for any ocassion. I haven't found one for Arbor Day yet, but I'm sure it's out there.
Associated Content has a list of Memorial Day drinks. I'm not sure what makes them special for today (other than the fact that most of them are summer-ish), but they sound interesting. The Colorado Bulldog combines vodka, coffee-flavored liqueur, cola, and light cream, while the Aqua Pearl features soursop (guanabana) juice, gin, lemon juice, simple syrup, blue curacao, and angostura bitters. There's one called Bees Knees II, which sounds like a horror sequel.
After the jump, the full recipe for another drink, the Lunar Lemon Quencher.

1/2 cup rum
