I've always wondered, are there certain parts of the country where you order in a different way?
For example, few days ago at work I had alot of people ordering drinks, to me, in the reverse. Like, "Yes let me get two Coke and rums, and a cranberry and vodka."
Is that a regional thing?

I'd agree but alot of folks ordering this way were more middle aged. Maybe it's a Canadian thing?

I know it might be shocking, but there are middle aged people that don't drink on a regular basis.
But it was around 20 different people I interacted with (it was saturday night). Even some of my co-workers noticed. I get people who order like that, but I might get maybe 2-3 a week. That's why it stood out to me.

Well, theres the plain ol original. But I'm sure there's TONS of different ways people make em. Thing is, they may call it a 'mudslide' but by using different liquors, it turns into an entirely different drink.

That's what I'm used to, so when someone tells me they want a coke and rum, I start turning around when they say 'coke' cause I assume they want a coke...then double back when i hear 'rum'...so i repeat it to make sure I get their order right. I probably looked like a fat ballerina saturday night

In reality, I think it's like any other ingredient list. You either list it in order of when it's added to the cocktail or by volume added.
In the olden days, people didn't used to make a mixed drink with 1 part alcohol to 6 parts mixer, it used to be the other way around.
That might explain why drinks that only have a splash of something like Bailey's have their non alcoholic portion listed first.

As long as they are tipping, or have nice tits, I couldn't care less what order they use for the ingredients. Oh, and if you order a drink and don't know what is in it....I'll make whatever I want and tell you, "That's how we make them here".
