    My city has a “no straight spirits” rule for bars, it’s a failed attempt to stop binge drinking

    So I would order whisky on the rocks, hold the ice

    Were I a gin fan it would be a “perfectly dry martini”

    The bar staff agree the rule is stupid and are usually happy to work around them. Binge drinking in bars hardly happens anyway as it is too expensive, we have very high alcohol taxes, except on wine.
