TIL World’s biggest beer, wine and spirits producers have collectively lost $830 billion in market value over just four years. Changing drinking habits and rising health concerns have hit earnings across the sector. Millennials and Gen Z are also not much interested in alcohol.

    Bars with overpriced drinks hate this one weird trick:

    1oz Campari - $1.10

    1oz Red vermouth - $0.75

    1oz Gin - $1.50

    1 orange peel sliver - $0.1

    Ice

    100% premium ingredients. A dalmation could prepare it. $3.45 cost, sell it for double @ $7.

    I know it’s an unc take, but I just don’t understand where the appetite for $20+ cocktails comes from. Maybe I’m just poor, like the person said below.
