Haiku Friday: Cocktails!


I'm not much of a drinker. I don't know how to make drinks, and I'm baffled by the names on a drink menu. Yet, it is kind of fascinating to watch someone make things behind a bar when I am waiting for a table at a restaurant. It's a whole world I don't understand, and those are the ones I find most fascinating.

So let's haiku about that today. About a drink you like, or maybe why you abstain, or what you find baffling. Here, I will go first:

Now it is your turn! Just use the 5/7/5 syllable pattern, and have some fun!

I may disagree with the Barr analy
