Most bars here think that Coke belongs in a Black Russian. I think because it makes for a longer drink and therefore takes longer to drink, meaning a few rounds are less likely to end in puke or violence?

I've even seen Tia Maria, vodka and Coke described as a Black Russian. Sigh.

I remember taking my Mum and sister (blimey - so we did used to get on just a little bit!) to Freud's in Oxford back in the early '90s. Gorgeous place - old chapel. I bought us cocktails, and ordered a B52 for myself. The waitress said, very kindly, "This is a short cocktail you know." It was okay, I knew, but sweet of her to worry that I was envy the other two's long, fizzy, umbrella decorated drinks.
