How To
How to Order Drinks at the Bar Without Embarrassing Yourself
There are many methods to order drinks at your local bar. But these methods require that the drink be ordered in advance. If you don't know what drink you want, then you should ask your server how they would recommend ordering it. You won't have to embarrass your server by asking for recommendations.
This method involves speaking with your server and telling them what type of drink you want. Perhaps you say "I'd prefer a glass," and then tell your server exactly which beer you desire. For example, if you wanted Budweiser, you could say "a Budweiser." Next, tell your server what size you want (e.g., small, medium, large). You will never feel awkward again once you are done.
