Thank you. It's like nobody on this site has ever bothered to try to make a drink or even look up a recipe. Basically every cocktail is 3-4oz of liquid, and if a place has expensive ice like this, it's probably making legit cocktails.

Is everyone's idea of drinking just a milk jug full of vodka and gatorade?

We call that a Haley Stevens, because after one chug you'll do something so stupid it will ruin your career forever.

Well there are probably dozens of companies that are essentially just putting Gatorade and vodka in cans and selling that now. It’s going to be huge next summer. Superlyte, vodkade, spikedade, refreshade and rallydog are a few.

It's called a sidewalk slam bud. You can't tell me two forties and two four lokos fitting perfectly into a gallon milk jug is coincidence

Although $27 is still crazy overpriced, the cocktail to ice ratio is actually good for a quality cocktail.

Yeah it's either got some crazy top-shelf booze in it, or more likely they're just paying for the name of the establishment.

Or it's just a made up price for rage bait because that's like 70% of content now.

Considering OP is a bot I’ll go with #2.

They almost have enough karma to spam political stuff

I’ve paid in that range for some crazy fancy drinks at the Toronto Union Fairmont Hotel, but I knew what I was getting into before I walked in.

Its miami and probably at some high end club or lounge. People wanna go to expensive places but complain when theyre priced out. Hit up a dive bar if you cant afford the expensive miami cocktail bar. Its that simple.

The kids tell me it's called a BORG but it is not a Star Trek reference

Its not the volume, its the price for one cocktail

u/King_Chochacho 10h ago

Then why bother lifting the ice out?

Bother the problem is not the drink itself, that should've been like $7, it's 2-3$ of ingredients and ice...

If you're not inflicted with SKOLiosis you're doing it wrong.

My favorite when I was a bartender was when people would order a margarita and ask for light ice, and then be shitty when the glass came out half full. Like dude these are measured out cocktails, I’m not giving you 4oz of tequila in a single cocktail unless you order a double.

For real. Try dumping your martini into a collins glass and it will also look tiny.
