Wandering through some of the side streets that branch off of The Ramblas, yields all kinds of bars and clubs. One in particular that we decided to try was My Bar, which is actually an English Pub of sorts (lot of Pubs in Barcelona). Just for fun I asked the Bartender if she could make a margarita, and though her English was not too good, she knew exactly what drink that was.
So for the next 10 minutes, she carefully mixed, poured and shook a couple of drinks for us. It was impressive how much effort she put into the concoction. And the price wasn't bad either, about 6 euros for each one.
And then came the moment of truth - the first sip. OMG, it was horrible beyond belief, unless of course you like over-sized tequila shots, cause there wasn't much else in it. The clear color should have been the give-away. But what the heck, we were in an English Pub somewhere in the city center of Barcelona, so what do you expect?
So as a margarita, this one ranks a 1 at best. But in terms of a quick drunk it's a definite 5.
