=== What's The Deal With Absinthe? ===
+
−
[http://www.webtender.com/handbook/absfaq.html Absinthe has it's own FAQ]. It's hard to get, but not banned in most places. It's dangerous to drink, but not poisonous. It's a [http://www.moderndrunkardmagazine.com/issues/08-04/08-04-van-gogh.htm different kind of drunk], but (modern Absinthe e.g. Absente) does not contain Thujone or hallucinogens.  Real absinthe, such as Nouvelle Orleans, does contain Thujone which is a hallucinogen.  However, properlay made absinthe has a concentration of Thujone of less than 5ppm which is well under the legal limit.  Chemical studies have been done on pre-ban absinthe showing that the absinthe at that time also had a low Thujone content.

=== What's The Deal With Red Bull? ===

−
Red Bull does '''not''' contain Bulls blood, semen, urine etc.

−
It '''does''' contain caffine, taurine and other stimulants which are tough on the body when mixed with the depressant alcohol and may both [http://www.webtender.com/iforum/message.cgi?id=44583 encourage, and heighten the effects of, severe over-intoxication].

AKA: I found this bottle in the back of the cabinet - is it OK to drink?
+
−
 
+
−
* [http://www.webtender.com/iforum/message.cgi?id=45261 Spirits have essentially unlimited shelf life] (even once opened, but put the cap back on).
+
−
* [http://www.webtender.com/iforum/message.cgi?id=45261 Some sweeter liqueurs like Midori may lose their edge subtly in six months to years] but are still safe until you see lumps in them. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquer Liquers] are distinguished from Spirits mostly by virtue of having added sugar.
+
−
* Fortified Wines and [http://www.webtender.com/iforum/message.cgi?id=29493 Vermouths, once opened, are shelf stable and can last one year without refrigeration]. They do deteriorate marginally, but not a lot.
+
−
* Cream Liquers like Baileys, Advocaat and Amarula [http://www.webtender.com/iforum/message.cgi?id=647 generally are recommended to be consumed within a year] of opening. [http://www.webtender.com/iforum/message.cgi?id=20058 Refrigeration] is usually not neccessary, but it can't hurt. Cheaper imitations are likely to curdle sooner than the originals.
+
−
 
+
−
Note that 'aged' spirits like [http://www.webtender.com/iforum/message.cgi?id=10782 Reposado Tequila] refer to the time spent in the '''cask''' prior to bottling, not the time on the shelf. Port and Brandy however apparently continue to mature slightly in the bottle itself (ref?)

== Making Drinks ==
+
−
Recipes are [http://www.webtender.com/browse.html easy to find] but finding the right version, or the 'real' one can be tricky. This section will not attempt to cover the details of individual drinks, but a few broader questions.
+
−
 
+
−
=== How To Copyright A Drink? ===
+
−
With only one or two exceptions ([http://www.webtender.com/iforum/message.cgi?id=2040 The Trader Vic Mai Tai] & [http://www.webtender.com/iforum/message.cgi?id=4875 The New Orleans Tropical Isle® Hand Grenade]) - [http://www.webtender.com/iforum/message.cgi?id=22191 There is no patent or copyright process for recipes (cocktail, or otherwise).]
+
−
[http://www.webtender.com/iforum/message.cgi?id=12092 Basically the only thing you're able to copyright is the NAME of the drink.]
+
−
 
+
−
[http://www.webtender.com/iforum/message.cgi?id=22199 The way to remain associated with the cocktail once it gets into the wild is to have a damn good legend behind it.]
+
−
 
+
−
[http://www.webtender.com/iforum/message.cgi?id=50695 Almost the only time you can get a firm name and date publically assigned to a drink - and its definative recipe {...is to...} win a competition with it and get published in the trade mags!]
+
−
 
+
−
=== What's The Recipe For XXXX That I Had In A Beach Bar On Holiday? It was pink and had three juices in it ===
+
−
 
+
−
Phone up the Hotel/ Bar where you had this drink/ cocktail and ask them if they will give you the recipe. They may say yes.
+
−
 
+
−
If you like a drink, then do try to remember its name. This can be achieved by writting it down, or keeping the itemised reciept (if you were given one).
+
−
 
+
−
It's pretty much guaranteed that the '''name''' was made up by the bar or bartender in that one little spot, probably following a pun on the bars theme or some in-joke, and has not been heard of outside its doors. There are however only so many decent recipe combinations, so most likely is that other folk are selling the same thing with a different name, swapping Chambord for Peach Schnapps, or Pineapple for OJ etc.
+
−
If a web search turns up nothing, and the name seems to be somehow 'appropriate' to the bar you found it in (eg 'reef rash' in a surfer bar) ... you are out of luck.

=== How Much Is A "Part" In A Recipe? ===
+
−
* [http://www.webtender.com/handbook/measurements.html Measurement conversions] can be found in any bartenders handbook, but [http://www.webtender.com/iforum/message.cgi?id=29982 a "part" is just an equal fraction of the total drink volume]

+
−
=== What's Sour Mix? ===
+
−
"[http://www.webtender.com/db/drink/5908 Sour Mix]", "Sweet & Sour Mix" and, for that matter "Margarita Mix" and [http://www.webtender.com/iforum/message.cgi?id=41282 "Tom Collins Mix"] are all pretty much the same thing.
+
−
They refer to some combination of lemon, maybe lime, sugar and water (or simple syrup) and possibly (rarely)[http://www.webtender.com/iforum/message.cgi?id=52783 egg white] or egg white powder.
+
−
 
+
−
This can be either totally made from a powder packet, a concentrated syrup/cordial or lovingly by hand.
+
−
The powder, the syrup, the ready-to-use diluted pre-mixes and the hand-made pre-mix are each called "Sour Mix" occasionally leading to some confusion.
+
−
 
+
−
[http://www.webtender.com/iforum/message.cgi?id=37634 The key to a properly made sour mix is balance. If you do it right, with the right ratios, and with quality ingredients. You should achieve a balance between sweet and sour that is devine.]

=== How To Mix/Pre-mix Large Amounts Of A Cocktail? ===
+
−
 
+
−
This is easier than people think. If you have a recipe that states "1 part this, 1 part that", then all you have to do is substitute the word "part" for bottles, half bottles, 50ml, 500ml etc etc.

=== Is Bartending School Worth It? ===
+
−
 
+
−
It depends on the school. Union-affiliated bartending schools typically have strong courses with good job prospects. However, almost anyone can start a bartending school, so the quality of instruction can vary a lot at the other schools. Because of this, many bar managers don't take bartending school graduates seriously unless they have other experience.

Based, in the first instance, soley on historical Webtender Forum discussions and referencing (as far as is possible) the 'last word' on the subject.

All items will be listed in this one page for easy scanning = until it gets too big.

Additions of either questions or multiple answers are welcome, but please try to keep answers/quotes as short as possible, and refer directly back to the relevant discussion context.

(META: I'm unsure about the best wiki-format way to quote quotes - I'm using the syntax I found over at wikiquote - but I don't like it Melonman)

Other Resources

Miss Charming has a FAQ of her own, also largely cross-referenced back to Webtender discussions.

For more prosaic Question-and-answer topics, The Webtender already mirrors the The (Un)Official Internet Bartender's Guide and has a measurement chart and A Liquor Gravity Chart for layering, among other info.

The Webtender forum has a working search. Use it.
