I had literally been at work since 8am, worked flat out, and legged it to the airport straight from work and got to the gate 2 mins before boarding, so I was gasping.
I said to the FA, very politely, - ahem, usually when I order a G&T in F, I get a mixed one, an extra bottle, and the can, or a glass with ice, 2 minis, and a can. Never just the drink.

Oh no sir, that is definitely not our policy. I was like - I flew up yesterday, and it definitely was the policy. I flew in F twice last week and it was the policy. But he was having none of it.
10 mins later he comes down the aisle with the can, no mini, and said - here you go, I’m making an exception just for you, as you are ExP. Aw thanks.
2 more bottles were forthcoming, so no evidence of the 2 drink rule tho. He just had to do extra work bringing them out when I wanted them.

Oh well, first world issues etc blah blah.
