What is the most popular drink that a girl should order at a bar or restaurant?
Old-fashioneds are the best drinks for girls in bars. It's made from whiskey, water, sugar, and ice.
Thomas Handy created the old-fashioned in 1876. His creation was named after the Long Island horse race that he loved.
What are some good mixed drinks you can order at a bar.
I would recommend the Old Fashioned. It's a classic cocktail with bourbon whiskey, sugar syrup, bitters, and water.
This drink's name is a result of the fact that it was first served without ice. The original recipe called for just whiskey, sugar, and bitters.
When people began adding ice to the mix they added "Old-Fashioned," to the title as they believed the old-fashioned version tasted best.
You might also consider a Manhattan. Another great option. This is essentially a variant on the Old Fashioned. Instead of using whiskey, you use Rye whiskey. And instead of using sugar, you use sweet vermouth.
Bartenders love this recipe because it is simple to make and tastes great.
