Don't skimp on the ice. Bags from the grocery store melt so fast and water down your drinks. I prefer beautiful, big squares for my cocktails.
I used to work at a pub called The Miner's Rest, and the landlord, Dennis, taught me how to pour a proper pint - it's the type of place where the regulars would send their drinks back if they weren't right.
The best wine is the oldest, the best water the newest.
If you cannot stand a spoon upright in the cup, then the coffee is too weak.
A good banana daiquiri is hard to come by. I've only ever found one place in this country that makes a proper one, and that's in Leeds.
After doing extensive research, I can definitely tell you that single malt whiskies are good to drink.
Note, that yeast of good Beer, is better then that of Ale.
