1. All Bourbon Manhattans have what in common?

Explanation

All Bourbon Manhattans have bourbon in common. This is because a Bourbon Manhattan is a specific type of cocktail that is made with bourbon whiskey, sweet vermouth, and bitters. The use of bourbon as the main ingredient is what distinguishes a Bourbon Manhattan from other variations of the classic Manhattan cocktail, such as a rye Manhattan or a Canadian whiskey Manhattan. Therefore, bourbon is a key component that all Bourbon Manhattans share.

2. Which of the following would you put a Tea Spoon of Olive Juice In.

Explanation

A Dirty Martini is a variation of a classic Martini that includes a small amount of olive juice, typically about a teaspoon. This addition of olive juice gives the cocktail a "dirty" appearance and adds a briny flavor to the drink. The other options listed, In and Out Martini, Gibson, and Dry Rob Roy, do not traditionally call for olive juice, so it would not be appropriate to add a teaspoon of olive juice to those cocktails.

Submit
3. Perfect means both 1/4 oz of Dry and Sweet Vermouth.

Explanation

The statement is true because when making a perfect cocktail, equal amounts of both dry and sweet vermouth are used, typically 1/4 oz each. This creates a balanced flavor profile, combining the herbal and bitter notes of dry vermouth with the sweeter and more aromatic qualities of sweet vermouth. By using equal amounts of both types of vermouth, the cocktail achieves the desired "perfect" balance.

Submit
4. All Rob Roys have what in common?

Explanation

All Rob Roys have Scotch in common because a Rob Roy is a cocktail that is made with Scotch whisky as its main ingredient. The drink is named after the Scottish folk hero, Rob Roy MacGregor, and is typically made by mixing Scotch whisky with sweet vermouth and bitters. Therefore, the correct answer is Scotch.

Submit
5. 1/4 Oz Sweet Vermouth
1 1/2 Oz Whiskey
Cherry

Explanation

The given ingredients, 1/4 oz Sweet Vermouth and 1 1/2 oz Whiskey, are the classic components of a Manhattan cocktail. The addition of a cherry as a garnish further confirms this answer. The other options listed, Rob Roy, Martini, and Gibson, do not typically contain Sweet Vermouth as an ingredient, making Manhattan the correct choice.

Submit
6. All Manhattans have what in common?

Explanation

All Manhattans have whiskey in common. A Manhattan is a classic cocktail that consists of whiskey, sweet vermouth, and bitters. The whiskey is the key ingredient that gives the drink its distinct flavor and character. Without whiskey, it would not be a Manhattan. Therefore, whiskey is the common element that all Manhattans share.

Submit
7. What comes in a Gibson?

Explanation

The correct answer is 1/4 Oz Dry Vermouth, 1 1/2 Oz Gin or Vodka, 3 cocktail onions.

The combination of sweet vermouth and Scotch creates a rich and flavorful drink, and the cherry garnish adds a touch of sweetness and visual appeal.

10. When a customer orders a drink, what is the first thing you should ask?

Explanation

The first thing you should ask when a customer orders a drink is whether they would like it "straight up" or "on the rocks." This refers to how they prefer their drink to be served. "Straight up" means the drink is served without any ice, while "on the rocks" means the drink is served over ice. Asking this question allows the bartender or server to prepare the drink according to the customer's preference.

Submit
11. What is a Perfect Manhattan?
