"Excellent choices," and with that, Pip dashed off into the back room, though it wasn't long she was gone and she returned in the end with a bottle in one hand and a great, big lime in the other.
The lime she dealt with first, whacking it right in half with a santuko that did not belong at a bar straining the juice between her fingers before she ever went for the alcohol- bright pink cranberry vodka and Sables Émouvants orange liqueur dashed off with cranberry juice from a fresh bottle and shaken up with two fistfuls of ice. Nevermind that Pip was one of those people who stretched her boozy little racket right over her head as handled things. The cosmo turned the glass cold frosted over even before she'd gotten the plastic sword with its lime peel and maraschino garnish perched on the edge.
This went to Yuyan with a grin before Pip moved on to beer. "So, that's a Cosmopolitan. If you dun like it, lemme know an we can try somethin else. Tonight's lambic, looks like we got... North Duck Run Coast Special Seawind Fluff. It's from Taber. I think. Name like that it'd better be from Taber."
The foil and the cork posed no problem to her, despite the extra yanking the latter required and the foam that dripped into her limey fingers as she nudged the beer into a tulip glass for Johnny.
