> For those of us who don't mix our own drinks, how much > (volume-wise) is a finger? Depends on where you are. In most places you put down the glass, then set your index finger on the bar sideways. Fill the glass to the width of the finger. But most people order two fingers, which would represent the width of the index and long fingers together. In Peru I learned to stand the index and long fingers on their tips and fill the glass up to the finger-palm joint (metacarpophalangeal joint.) Leo Martin Phoenix Arizona USA
