Looking for the signature drinks of the world’s best bars? From the original Painkiller in the British Virgin Islands to the Wiki Wacker in Avalon and other iconic cocktails around the globe, PubClub’s guide explores the bars, stories and destinations behind the world’s most famous drinks.

By Kevin Wilkerson, Pubclub.com Food & Drinks Editor

When you travel the world seeking great bars as do I, you inevitably come across various drinks and the culture surrounding them and the area. For example, the Weeky Wacker in Avalon in Southern California’s Catalina Island and the Pain Killer at the Soggy Dollar Bar in the British Virgin Islands.

You also learn things that others tell you is not true, such as the fact the Greeks don’t drink ouzo in Greece.

Armed with all that valuable information, I have created this series of signature drinks at some of the world’s best bars. So drink up this information and enjoy the information. Cheers!
