AT: "ar" A Cardassian sunrise was a beverage available on Earth in the 23rd century. It may have been Cardassian in origin, or merely named after Cardassia.
In 2255 of an alternate reality, Nyota Uhura ordered two Cardassian sunrises while at the Shipyard Bar, shortly before meeting James T. Kirk. (Star Trek)
The existence of this drink by the early 23rd century shows that, in the alternate reality at least, the Federation had some form of contact with the Cardassian Union.
