How about a Texas Flight?
Camper English (who blogs at www.alcademics.com) recently posed a question:
“So now I need a word or phrase that describes having every drink on the menu in one night - the cocktail menu equivalent of a triple crown or marathon or Iron Man.”
For me, the answer was easy. Here’s my logic:
- Trying three or more glasses of wine (or food or cocktails, for that matter) is called a “flight.”
- In golf, a team scoring method where the strokes of several players contribute to the final score is called a “Texas Scramble.”
Writing here from Houston (where the cliche is we do everything in a big way), a cocktail adventure where a team of cocktailians together have every drink on the menu in one night sure sounds like a “Texas Flight.”
