If you didn't get 10 out of 10, you're just not trying...

8 out of 10.
Guess I am a little rusty from my bar tending days.......
Never used to amaze me the various drink names people would ask for that I never heard of before. I'd ask what was in this "exotic" drink and they'd tell me a few ingredients and then based on that I'd make up something that was pretty common like a Tequila Sunrise and they'd be thrilled. There are only so many combinations so to speak and alot of it becomes more about style and marketing rather than the drink itself.

an easy 10, only three of these were in my repretoire 30 years ago when I tended bar, but I keep up with pop kulture.

9/10. Missed the Kamikaze. I'm pretty much a beer, wine, and occasional Single Malt kinda guy anymore, but have tried most of these.

 

[Jailtime]

6 out of 10. I'd say that's decent, considering that I've only had the margarita and Long Island iced tea out of the whole list.

That's the quintessential "shooter"!

I guess one doesn't "shoot" single malt, a little reverence is required there.

I can't believe I got 9/10 correct. Some of them were a shot in the dark to me.

My "shooter" experience is mostly limited to Schnaps over in Germany and tequila here. Both ultimately led me away from the whole "shooter" thing.:drunk:

8 of 10. Missed the Dr. Pepper and picked wrong on the Sea/Bay Breeze question.

 

[FiveStar]

10/10 Unfortunately, none of these drinks are actually cocktails. A cocktail in the traditional sense consists of any spirit, sugar, water, and bitters.


I'm a cocktail NERD though

Booze was meant to be drunk straight.

Booze was meant to be drunk straight.

I with you on this one, with the possible exception of gin and tonic, pisco sours, and a few rum drinks (hot buttered rum, mojitos, and just about anything when on a Caribbean beach) and, oh yeh, the occasional margarita.
