I actually can't technically call them stingy since you get exactly a serving. Though when someone is pouring in front of you then they get more generous, the best trick is when they go "oh we were almost out so here's the rest of the bottle" :D.


For those that want to know the term "Mormon Pour" comes from the state of Utah's law that a cocktail can contain exactly 1.5 ounces (I think) of distilled spirits, no more, no less, which also bans many cocktails. To do this they put a device on the bottle (those wacky mormons and their magnets) that you have to stick through another device to pour said shot. They also have weird laws like you have to be a club member, the limit doesn't apply to cordials, etc.

Germany - Mega beer stein
America - Sam Adams
Japan - sake
France - Grand Mariner Slush

I'd say skip the frozen drinks, they will make you sick with all the sugar.

Oh my! Are you sure all those sorts of liquors and beers are going to mesh well in your tummies? My friends tried the Grey Goose slushy in France and absolutely loved it.
I would suggest a frozen coke at the little African outpost. Not an adult beverage, but you could always add some rum that you smuggle in :twisted:
This sounds like an expensive undertaking ~ as someone who rarely drinks anything more exciting than that frozen coke I suggestedm it would be interesting to hear how much drinking around the world sets you back...

It might be just the so Cal prices vs orlando, but I always found their alcohol prices to be way cheaper than out here.

You drink all that syrupy crap and well cocktails you will be puking a rainbow. :D

Norway serves a Danish beer? (I have never looked so I can't verify).

Whoa,Rumpleminz is German? I didn't know that. I like shooting that stuff because it cleans out my sinuses. We may have to get a pic of each country and the preferred drink of choice. Yes Amy, I will keep a running total for you.

My guess, before tax and tip, $88 with a leeway of +/- $5.

I would guess a bit higher. I think margaritas and the like are more like $10 a pop. Easily over $100...
