For anyone who's worked in a bar, the tricks and crafty methods that people use to get the most bang for their buck are, for the most part, well-known.
One bartender has recently provoked a heated conversation on the world of social media after she admonished one customer who wanted a stronger drink by virtue of asking for 'no ice'.
Nashville-based Jemima June, who goes by @jemimajune_ on TikTok, recently uploaded a video in which a customer requests a tequila cranberry drink with no ice which has since garnered over eight million views on the social media platform.

Jemima reminds the customer that repeatedly requesting no ice "doesn't mean that he's going to get more alcohol" in his drink.
Other TikTok users commented to share their thoughts on the matter, with some praising Jemima for keeping a level head in the situation, whilst others labelled her "rude", reports the Mirror.
One user said: "Americans are craaazy. In Australia no ice means the drink is filled to the top with mix we just don’t want a cup full of ice."
Another said: "People are entitled to ask for their drink as they prefer it, if you ordered a steak in a restaurant you choose how you want it cooked, stop whining"
A third added: "as a bartender, I'm not questioning anything, I just give you what you ask for and have you pay for it"
Others came to her defence, with one TikToker saying: "As a bartender in a HIGH VOLUME setting this is not even being rude. It gets frustrating being yelled at when you are doing what they ask."
"The amount of times I’ve had to deal with this same situation. They really think no ice means more alcohol - not how that works", said another user.
One more user added: "I always use the line 'You gotta pay a little more to get a little more'. It usually shuts them up."
