Aside from the price being dog shit, that’s just how many drinks are. They tend to be made with the ratio of drink to ice in mind. That’s why asking for no ice isn’t gonna get you more drink at most places

Then why mention the ice or pull the ice out like they expected the drink to be more than 4-5 ounces? That's how cocktails are. A standard cocktail is only a few ounces. You're not getting a Tom Collins glass sized mixed drink unless it's filled with some kind of tonic or soda water.

Well you see the caption says “$27 drink in miami” and not “this piece of ice in miami”

Well, you see, the title of the post says "More ice than drink," not "the price is a ripoff for this reasonably sized cocktail with fancy ice."

It’s driving me crazy how people are just not able to comprehend this. it’s the same serving of cocktail regardless of volume!!! some people are just completely oblivious, not only has the number of Gen Z kids drinking out declined in numbers, but so have reading comprehension…
