On the other hand, I would appreciate Pitu cachaca, plenty of limes and a bit of sugar.
DL Stocked Woodford Reserve, so that's not too much of a stretch. I wonder if JJ stocks Cachaca. I forgot to check last time I flew them, as I was enthralled by the culinary temptations of a tapir sandwich.

Hey tito's has a good chance of getting CO or AA since it is a TX company, but I don't think they produce enough there

How does the margarita work? I assume it's from a can/mix -- is there already tequila in it, or do they add it? (Like a bloody mary w/vodka). I assume the mix already has some orange flavor/liquour, so by adding the Grand Marnier does that make it too sweet?

It is pre-mixed, Salvador's Margarita. IMO, it is rancid (as one might guess from a unit price of $10.99 per 1.75L). I don't know if Grand Marnier can save it, as I haven't tried that combo.

I'm not certain that JJ stocks any hard liquor on short domestic flights. Now that you mention it, I do remember DL stocking the Woodford Reserve. In addition, DL serves one of the nicer varieties of Patron in some of its CRC's.

"...What can I expect in terms of drinks? Do FC passengers receive free alcohol or is it $5?
Sorry about the newbie question, but I have been flying regional jets non-stop for the past 8 months..."

I can't believe none of you guys clued the original poster in.
Rtiggi,
Once the curtain closes, the lap dances begin. Don't let the FA's try and tell you otherwise. It's part of their contract.
Enjoy your trip.

If you want to get a little adventurous try an "Apple Jack" or a "Jack and Ginger".

Surprisingly good!

BTW, we have both Jack and Jim.

Oooo now I have to think. It was either EWR, IAH or CLE.

I know I've seen it, I was pleasantly surprised. It wasn't NW as that's self serve - I had to ask for it, that leaves only CO as I use no other clubs.

Perhaps EWR?

NW has a few WC's that are not self-serve. DCA is one; would have to think about the others, but I know that there are a few.

IAD is on that list as well. I think it has something to do with Virginia law.
