I think you strongly overestimate the competence of the average barkeep, many are there for the seasonal job or just to fill a gap between jobs. Not that there's anything wrong with either one of those, but it's good to know beforehand so you don't have a drink absolutely butchered. I can't even begin to count the times I've been served a "skinny bitch" that's just vodka and soda water.

As an example of this I once ordered a margarita in a casino bar and the bartender looked up the recipe in a book.

It goes to show how much adult life is and will always be a middle school dance.

Ah, too bad, it would have been a funny reversal of expectations.

That seems better than dumping a yellow mixture of unknown origin over some well tequila.
