I'm not used to the "dash measuring system" as it applies to liquids |

(I think the killer bees made off with the dash instructional material the U.S. needed to implement it)

Martiki, come on down to San Diego, we've got'em already. I don;t think they'll get up to SF, 1 of those August frosts'll kill'em.

Surely a 'Dash' applies to the rapid wrist-movement - while the hand is connected to the bottle - that's directed above the glass - that's about to receive said liquid - into a concoction that's designed to spread merriment throughout all present?
Or in other words, the dash is the barman's perogative. Any so-called 'measurement' is intrinsically wrong.

Damn that My Bar site. I got so excited, and it said I could make 44 drinks.
I have more than 44 liquors in my bar (about 1/4 of that rums), I could make 44 drinks with water and vodka!
and a dash is the bartender's deal. In my opinion, however, lay super light on the Pernod. If you can't distinguish its flavor, you've done the job right : )
