How To
How to order drinks at the bar without embarrassing yourself
Although there are many ways to order drinks at a local bar, you need to be able to identify the drink you desire before you approach the counter. 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. One example is "I'd love a glass" of beer. Next, tell your server what beer you prefer. You could, for instance, say that you would like Budweiser. Next, tell the server how big you'd like it to be (e.g. medium, large). You will never feel awkward again once you are done.
