A fvcking Riesling? Are you a grandmother? "A trifle sweet?" Do you say that about Jolt as well? Damn, remember Jolt? That was some crazy sh-t.
"Double the sugar! Double the caffeine!"
And NEVER try to talk wine with someone unless you know wtf you're talking about. Otherwise, you might end up sounding like "love vino" or the guy who implied that Zinfindel was girly.
Here's the deal:
OP, do a little research and pick a drink. Make it a drink that has fewer than 3 ingredients, preferably nothing sweet. Make it a drink that uses vodka, gin, bourbon or scotch. Know your brand and order it. No thinking during the order. It is okay to see a wine list or a beer list prior to placing an order. Never, and I mean fvcking NEVER, ask to see a cocktail list at a bar. If it's a "mixologist" place, it's okay to look at the list after you've ordered your drink, but know wtf you're ordering.
