Some cocktails aren't your style. Some bring back horrific memories of Freshman year. But some are just bad. Jeff Burkhart at the Marin Independent Journal has made a list of the worst cocktails ever. His top four starts with the Mint Julep. Despite it's renown as the Kentucky Derby tipple of choice, Burkhart finds the combination of bourbon, sugar, and mint repulsive. The list rounds out with the Green Lizard (151 and green Chartreuse), Picon punch (a whole bunch of bitter stuff), and Absinthe with sugar and water. To this list we will respectfully add any -tini with a prefix that is not "mar." What cocktail concoctions make you gag?
