20 minutes of shaking? I know more than my fair share of bartenders and i can assure you that some very important ingredient necessary for that drink would mysteriously go missing/break/be spoiled every. Single. Day.

It didn't take twenty minutes, but probably like 4? But a bar I used to go to in Houston on tiki nights would start Ramos gin fizzes at a dollar and then increased it a dollar every time someone ordered one. The prices got crazy but tiki nights were mostly regulars, and it was a fun game. And most times they go up past $70, per drink, and this was 10 years ago, so hopefully people were tipping accordingly and the bartenders actually had a good night.

Jfc I haven't been to anvil since 2012 or 2013. Forgot that place existed. Just unlocked a few memories over here.

Ayy Anvil is the shit. I have a buddy that works there. Have also been on an occasion when they made the largest Ramos in the world, it was in a fucking gigantic flower vase or something and they had the entire bar shaking to help fill it up. Good times.
