Nirvana Nevermind

Nirvana's Nevermind (1991) has one of the most recognizable album covers in rock history: a baby swimming toward a dollar bill on a fishhook, an idea that came from Kurt Cobain himself and was shot by underwater photographer Kirk Weddle with three-month-old Spencer Elden. This drink is a tongue-in-cheek homage: a bright blue, soda-topped rum cocktail built to look like that pool, garnish joke very much included.
