What's This Blog?

This blog was created on November 4th, 2013 in a bar in New York City. Three friends came up with a simple idea for a fun experiment when going to bars. The rules are as follows.

1) Take an inside joke or reference that the friends have which you think would make a good name for a cocktail.

2) Ask the bartender or server if they would make you a drink by that name. Specify that the drink may contain whatever they want-- as long as they think it is appropriate for the name.

3) Enjoy.

Now, we know that bartenders get all sorts of annoying requests, and it should always be made clear to the bartender that they shouldn't have to go out of their way to do this. We don't want to piss anyone off, we just want to have a good time.

After doing this once on a whim, and having a blast doing so, I decided I wanted to keep doing this throughout the city. And because we live in the modern age, I made a blog out of it.
