Drink like a man: what to avoid ordering

WASHINGTON – What you order at the bar can say a lot about you, according to AskMen.com.

The website compiled a top 10 list of drinks that “real men” should never order.

For example, it advises men to steer clear of a drink with a name that can’t easily be pronounced. It makes the drinker appear to be putting on airs.

Others that made the list include Malibu and Diet Coke, a Fuzzy Navel, any “tini” that strays from a traditional martini, Sex on the Beach, alcoholic sodas and Cosmopolitans.

The article also suggests that “manly” drinkers avoid ordering whatever “she is having.”
