the cock n' bull equation



i picked up some ginger beer/ale from bristol farms the other day. the name mainly drew me to the bottle.


why can't any of the bartender's i've encountered know how to make a moscow mule?
the conversation
in a noisy bar usually goes something like this:

male bartender: "what can i get you cutie?"

me: moscow mule please.


male bartender: what??

me: mos-cow, mu-el.


male bartender: [gives me a look] sorry, we don't make that kinda stuff here.
me: [looks uncomfortable and orders the following to rack up some respect points] uh... just give me a jameson one the rocks.

it's just a simple equation and it's good, i don't get why more people don't order it. i'm gonna give up and just ask for a "goose & ginger with a lime" next time.
