Pretty Cocktails for Tough Dudes

It’s customary for the fellas to watch the women sipping pretty cocktails in their scandalous party dress swaying their hips from side to side at the far end of the bar, while guzzling down a drink of their own. What has altered in the scene is the drink men are consuming. Their mixed drink nowadays may not be the traditional bourbon and sodas or the gin and tonic, rather pretty fancy cocktails of their own.
