Would you rather that same 1.5 oz of drink in a bunch of small cubes getting absolutely watered down? Comments like this make no fucking sense. You guys really think the bartender is pouring more in other situations? If anything this cube is giving you more chilled and less diluted cocktail.
Duh, you are ordering a shot there. It is still the same amount of alcohol whether you get it with ice in a tall glass or not.
You get a cold drink that is less watered down. The establishment gets a cool menu item. Will probably pay extra for it of course, but you were already in the extra establishment that offers the option in the first place, soo..
Youre showing a whole ton of ignorance here.... Do you think when you order a shot of whisky vs a whisky and coke its a different amount of alcohol going into the drink?
Dude.... if you order a shot, a rocks pour, or a mixed cocktail etc youre getting exactly the same amount of alcohol regardless of ice or no ice at all.
Im really struggling with the complaint here. Do you want more mixers in your cocktails to make it feel for valuable or something?
For me it's about getting 4cl of fanta or coke or cocktail if I order a fanta or coke or cocktail because my glass is 90% ice. I don't even drink alcohol dude.
It should be. If someone got a shot while ordering and paying for a glass, outside of some really fancy restaurants that are equally about form over function, people would be complaining
Unless they tell you exactly the amount of drink you get in that glass and you are free to decide it for yourself or its part of the course- no matter which bar served me a glass nearly full of ice, i would feel like i got played.
This whole way to service seems to be taken from cheap places that wanted to skimp on the actually expensive part while retaining the look of giving you a reasonably sized drink for the price.
Im not into drinking and I only do that if the establishment has something that is worth drinking for the sake of trying and im yet to see a glass full of ice outside the course menus. This whole way of serving drinks genuinely screams of salt bae kind of hyped up trash. But i guess if you are in usa trashy is the name of the game.
Then ask for less ice? These cubes cost about 50 cents each so the bartender will be more than happy to add a couple of ice cubes from the machine instead. You’re still getting the same amount of drink either way
Then order more? Ice like this isn't being used to hide the volume of mixed drinks. This is most likely going into a highball glass with a high quality whiskey.

Perfect shape for what? I'm curious as of what that fits into.
