Favorite Shot or Mixed Drink

Alright, I've taken on a side job as a bartender, and I've been getting all of these weird requests for shots and drinks. I need to expand my collection of what drinks I can make. What is your favorite drink, and how do you make it?

 

Learn how to mix a 'Thandai' and then you will not get a request for any other.

Awesome! I love bartenders.

Anyways, I get these a lot (college student):

-Bacardi and Cola
-Long Island Iced Tea
-Vodka on the rocks

I hate screwdrivers, though. I'd rather just have Vodka. I've had bartenders take the soda out of the Long Island, as well.

 

I normally ask for Coca Cola

 

Uh...that's what I meant, too.

 

I drink beer or rum and coke.

My wife and her friends always get "buttery nipples" some kind of baileys shot.

PlanetAndrea did you read the current issue of "Fast Company"
Top bartender are making big money nowaday

 

Irish Car Bomb

Half of a glass of Guinness
shot: 1/2 bailey's irish cream, 1/2 irish whiskey

Drop the shot in the Guinness and slam it.

 

Ahhh there are so many! I think i have an alcohol problem. I cant even think of my fav one.

 

That's a quality problem, my friend!

 

I love WKD Blue.

 

Sweet martini here..
Don't know how to make that poison though...

 

Oprah's favorite is very tasty

1 oz vodka
1/2 oz Cointreau orange liqueur
3 oz pomegranate juice

Combine ingredients in a cocktail shaker 1/4 filled with chopped ice. Shake and strain into a cocktail glass. Serve with a squeeze of lemon.

 

I'm bartending at a local radio station party friday night and my boss told me to expect around $300-400 tips that night, my bank must think i'm a stripper with all the $1's hahah I've learned so much already, plus its a blast! I make crap per hour but the tip money pays the billz.

 

I like the old fashion myties(sp?) and margarettes(sp?) and whiskey shots.....

 

Okay, I have something to confess.

When I started going out to bars after my 21st birthday (I'm a good boy!), I had no idea that you were supposed to tip bartenders. My ex had even been a bartender, and I never put two and two together: that you should order drinks AND tip at the same time.

Still, I don't see any reason to start now. Tell me why I should.
