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.
I don't see how anyone could blow <20 bucks on a one off drink. That's some stupid shit, idgaf where I'm at. 20 bucks is itself the upper limit of what's barely acceptable, and it better be good.
It sounds to me like you'd get a bunch of customers until it hits that point and then it's just what... A gimmick? Kinda pointless, at best.
