Sahandra

 * – (View AfD (View log  •  AfD statistics)

Likely hoax. There are no sources about this drink. The article cites two sources: 1. Fischer, L. (1996). Designing women: cinema, art deco, and the female form Film and culture: Columbia University Press, 2003 2. Curtis, W. (2006). And a bottle of rum: a history of the New World in ten cocktails: Crown Publishers However, neither book mentions Sahandra. A Google Books search in the first book (with the query "Sahandra") returns no results. Likewise, a Google Books search in the second book (with the query "Sahandra") also returns no results. A Google News Archive search and a Google Books search return no relevant results. This topic fails Verifiability. Cunard (talk) 08:35, 10 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete The first book seems unlikely to contain much of a mention about this specific drink (or if it does, I would assume that it would be a very brief mention) - like Cunard, I can't find a reference to the drink via Google Books, and none of my local libraries have this book in their stocks, so I can't verify it myself. The second book  simialrly isn't available for me to look at locally. I can find no references which include the book title and the word "Sahandra". In fact the only references I can find that mention either of these books and the word "Sahandra" is at this article. --  Phantom Steve / talk &#124; contribs \ 13:44, 10 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete I too was unable to verify the sources when the article was first submitted, and tagged it as a hoax. Agree with nom - it's likely a fictitious drink sourced falsely. Though I applaud the continued invention of new mixed drinks, the article as-standing is both a hoax and not a noteworthy concoction.  DJ Bullfish  00:03, 11 December 2009 (UTC)
