How To
How to Order Drinks at The Bar without Being Embarrassed
There are many methods to order drinks at your local bar. But these methods require that the drink be ordered in advance. Ask your server what they recommend ordering if you are unsure of the drink you desire. This way, you won't embarrass yourself when asking them to make recommendations.
This involves talking with your server to tell them what type you want. It might sound like this: "I'd like to have a glass of beer." Next, tell your server exactly what type of beer you would like. For example, if Budweiser is what you are looking for, you could say "a Budweiser." Next you will tell your server the size of beer you want (e.g. large, medium or large). When you're done, he/she will give you the correct price, and you'll never feel awkward again!
