Been seeing this phrase used often in recent advertising.
Wtf is a handcrafted cocktail? Arnt all mixed drinks made “by hand”?

Some are poured from mixers, so no not really.
My wife makes me a non alcholic and almost sugar free Mojito on the weekends.
She uses a muddle and crushes the mint and lime and then adds ice and Diet Sprite, I would call that hand crafted.

It’s called puffing in sales.

Since Covid it means "we have a person, sometimes, that you could kinda sorta call a 'bartender'."

We went to some so-called craft bar in Fredericksburg my wife ordered me a gin and tonic and the f** bartender asked me how it was, it pissed him off when I told him it was no Tanqueray. It cost $17 and was mediocre at best.

Just order an ice tea, save making the cocktails when you're at home. Restaurant and bar cocktails are a rip off unless someone else is paying!

Iced tea is five bucks now. More and more it’s water for me.
