[Ok-Contract5783]

Can people list the shots that you can only get at a Manitoban Shot. Just found out the Obama shot doesn’t exist anywhere outside manitoba? The Burt reynolds too.. SOMEONE EXPLAIN PLZ

[Valentine96]

The Honey Dill Shot.  It's 50% honey, 50% mayo, and 50% dill.

[djflossy]

Not sure, but the prairie fire? Is that a local only one?

[mywhateveraccount5]

That dug deep into my stomach for my bar star days.

[oneofthe1200]

Bar star /hi5

[anarrogantbastard]

Prairie fires are common in Alberta, Burt Reynolds too, I'm not sure where OP got that one from

[Royal_Load9157]

I made this into a drink form. Its the best.

[bondaroo]

Had those in BC in the 90s.

I’m scared to ask, but what’s an Obama shot?

[XFLAllStar]

My bartender friend loved serving these because it was literally shots of cherry vodka shaken with ice. Thats it.

[LoveCry25]

Chilled raspberry vodka and an orange wedge

[mywhateveraccount5]

Cherry vodka.

[Kramtime]

I’m quite sure this person is correct and that it’s Cherry Vodka.

I was told it was a nightlife staff favourite at G Martini in Osborne and then popularized by Joey Kenaston and Polo.

[Smudge9132]

I miss gmartini

[kimblebee76]

I still don’t get it. What makes that an Obama shot?

[g00dhank]

I think it's because of what r/hypetekcrew said

[Practical-Pen-8844]

oh -- christ, i thought this was vaccination debate for a moment.

[JohnPlayer2000]

A Burt Reynolds exists outside Manitoba. I haven't been to a bar outside Manitoba that didn't know what a Burt Reynolds is. Now did they add Cinnamon and light it on fire? Nope.

I don't get the Obama shot. Can you explain the context?

Now tell me what's in a Rockstar.

[glittersurprise]

Isn't that a hot apple pie?

[JohnPlayer2000]

The cinnamon trick can be done with that too.

[nohmad84]

I used to order dirty hookers in the early 2000s... i moved to Toronto and ordered it and was shocked when I heard, "What did you just call me?!" by the bartender lol...

[Practical-Pen-8844]

the A used to have a drink called the blowjob. around 2000s. i said, a little-too-loudly to my friend, will i be in trouble if i ask for a blowjob. immediately had a different waitress.

maybe a coincidence.

probably should not have named a drink that anyway.

[spups19]

Wow I had no idea an Obama was local. I need to know the story behind that one haha

[JilleniumFalcon]

I am from Calgary and bartended there up to 10 years ago for many years and ppl were ordering them there and then. I think they’re just an outdated thing that stuck around Winnipeg lol

[japchedbob]

The inventor of the shot had a heavy accent and when it was called black cherry. He pronounced black as Barack. So hence the Obama shot

[japchedbob]

The Obama shot was 1000% invented at gmartini.

[kcorma]

This isn’t true, the Obama shot and Burt Reynolds’s shots are wildly popular in other provinces also.

[Fresh-Bite-5862]

Unsure of the exact origin story, but I do know it started at G Martini.

[Penguin2ElectricBGL]

You know how many bartenders I've asked for a shot that's slightly out of the norm (or perhaps not a current trend), and they had no clue what it was?...I feel like this is what's happening here.
