How to drop a specific database using Mongoid?

Question

Mongoid.default_session.database_names gives me an array of database names. I want to delete a specific database. How would I do that?

Mongoid.default_session.drop() always seems to drop the default database even if I override the current database using Mongoid.override_database("test_database")

What am I missing?

Have you tried a combination of Session.use and Session.drop?
