I've done it with midori, too. But for people who can't deal with drinking, they can usually handle it due to the low alcohol content of the malibu and the potency of the pineapple.

We were eating at the bar in a Longhorn Steakhouse once and the guy sitting next to us ordered a dry martini. When he ordered he clearly stated his gin preference and asked for two olives. The bartender still had to look it up and then proceeded to make him a vodka martini that was like half vermouth. No olive.

Glance at the vermouth bottle briefly while pouring the juniper distillate freely.

some girls from my hostel wanted to go to the red light district then clubbing i wasn't up for clubbing so i bought a couple joints and smoked them walking around looking at all the weirdos and canals

so now im high, and lost, and not keen on flashing my phone to check directions and come across this really posh looking bar, so i go in. because hey, liquor will clear my head ehhhh (plus i can look at my phone in there safely most likely)


and the guy starts loving with an orange and im just like oh i guess he's making an old fashioned whatever he's being cool that I'm a high as gently caress backpacker in a fancy bar and his english wasn't good (he was from lithuania)

so he makes, i dont know what. like a rocks glass of whiskey and sweet vermouth with a half an orange instead of a whiskey ice ball?

and he hands it to me, eager "very good fancy american drink yeah? manhattan! i make good?" and im just like yeah buddy thinking well it's a poo poo load of liquor so i've got that going for me, and im like how much and he's like 9 euros so i give it to him and say keep the change and he's like OH A TIP LIKE IN AMERICA in this super excited voice

i mean dont most cocktail bars list off weird variations / made up stuff, but they can make standard.

like no bar has a menu that lists "manhattan", but you can order one and it's usually whatever the base tier is, unless you start using fancy rye

yeah they'll normally say "we also make classic cocktails, if you don't fancy a violet gin and laburnum infusion with sherbert whizzers crammed down its pisshole until the drink turns red" on the menus

if there's no menus then yeah they'll just make whatever you ask

The recipe for a negroni is on the back of every single bottle of Campari. You don't even need to live in a city with a bar scene, you just need to live in a city with a liquor store that sells Campari

He'll tire eventually.
The best cocktail is:

3 parts Korean pomegranate wine
3 parts orange Koskov (a really terrible vodka liqueur that I think is only found on US military bases)
3 parts lemon-lime soda
1 part whiskey sour mix

Good luck finding the first two.

Alternately, any cocktail involving lambanog

This thread reminded me that it took me forever to find out that angostura bitters are actually purchased at the grocery store, and not at the LCBO like every other alcohol.

Now that I've finally moved out on my own again, I have to buy some.

I had a bar I'd frequent with good bartenders and never had an issue. Stopped going for awhile and one day I went back and ordered a gin martini. I was given one with a garnish of lime.

one i attended an "all you can drink absinthe" event in prague. it was the *start* of a pub crawl we paid 400 CZK for. You got the all you can drink for, IIRC an hour, then a free drink at each bar.

Now, I'm used to the "free" drink semi-scam they pull with hostels. You go on a pub crawl, get a free shot at each bar, and the shots are those stupid American style ones that are only 1/3 alcohol and the others drinks are super overpriced.

But this... this was pret-t-y good. We got an hour of absinthe, then 2 drinks (beer or shot) then free entry to a czech disco.

The absinthe was rotgut and looked the color of nyquil. The fact they used plastic shot glasses didn't help.

I figured the line would be long and I should double fist since I wouldn't get a second turn, but that wasn't the case. I did 2 shots, then 2 more. Then I started doing stupid poo poo like mixing it with mountain dew.

Then I blacked out, and next thing I know I'm at a czech disco out on the dancefloor. I'm not really a "dancing" guy but I just kind of went with it and it was pretty fun.

Surprisingly I didn't have a bad hangover the next day. :shrug:

It's okay if you have any questions.


I'm a fan of the Tijuana Manhattan. It's a Manhattan but you use anejo tequila as the base spirit instead of bourbon or rye.
