There are plenty of tipples to choose from when you hit the bar on a night out, but usually people have a preferred regular order set on
default. What’s your poison? Are you a vodka/Red Bull kind of clubber? Are you a bubbles kind of girl? Or do you like your drinks fast and strong? Think carefully about your choice because others are watching, and whether subconsciously or not, they are judging you. What drink you hold in your hand affects the kind of person that will try to pick you up. Here’s what some drinks say about you (warning: this article contains overt stereotypes):
Beer: while it’s quite typical of Aussie guys to enjoy a beer on a night out, the brand he chooses says a lot about him – if it’s a foreign beer like Heineken, he’s got good taste and will attract a well-travelled lass. If it’s VB, he’s a cheapskate and probably won’t pick up all night. If it’s a girl that’s spotted drinking beer, she instantly seems more approachable and low maintenance. A lot of guys would appreciate this, others might think it’s not very lady-like (those guys are insecure about their sexuality).
Champagne: there’s something classy about a girl holding a glass of bubbles daintily in her well-manicured hands, but it can give the impression that you’re a bit of a princess with expensive taste. In my humble opinion this isn’t a bad thing, it just means you’ll attract someone who can afford you.
Shots: you can tell someone is looking to party when they are downing shots at the bar but beware – if you’re getting messy, you might appear to be an easy target for a quick hook up or a one night stand whether true or not so keep your wits about you (unless of course you are looking for some no-strings-attached-lovin’, in which case go for gold).
Vodka/Red Bull: this is the drink of serious partygoers looking to go all night, most likely you will attract other hyperactive people by sipping on this beverage. You’re in for a fun night!
Cocktail: if you’ve ordered a colourful cocktail, you will look like a fun person who is willing to try new things. Ideally you’ll attract someone equally as adventurous and you have a high chance of picking up because an unusual looking drink can be a great conversation starter. If you order cocktails with dirty names (think Sex on the Beach), you’ll probably just pick up the bartender. If this is what you’re aiming for (which is fair enough because bartenders are usually sexier than half the people in the bar), make sure you drink your cocktail seductively in front of them.
