Big, Bigger, Biggest

The other day I was reading an article, in which a particular bar in Cuba had made a huge Daiquiri in the memory Ernest Hemmingway the Daiquiri amounted to 71 Gallons (almost 250 lts) and was poured in a specially made fiber composite 6.5ft tall cocktail glass.. 

That led me to search for more of such big, bigger and biggest feats in the drinks and food world. I have noted a few feats that interested me hope it interests you as well.

Largest Cocktail

To celebrate over 30 years in business, Ricardo’s Mexican Restaurant in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA created a giant margarita cocktail measuring a whopping 28,871 litres that included a mind numbing 4600 lts of tequila & 710 lts of triple sec along with other ingredients 

The solution was made in a giant tank measuring 4.5 m (14 ft 10 in) tall and 3 m (10 ft) in diameter, and covering the outside to make it appear as much as possible like a glass of margarita. To make it simple to understand, the tank held around 80,000 servings of margarita. They hold the Guinness record for the largest cocktail.

 Largest Wine Glass

A Lebanese company holds the record for the world’s largest wine glass that measures just over 7 ft in height and can hold up to 1557 lts of wine that’s over 2100 regular bottles of wine in one glass. Phew..

 

Largest Wine Bottle

      The 1,850 litre bottle from Wang Chen Wines in Liaoning, Northern China is 15 feet high and contains nearly 1850-liters of wine - setting the new world record for the world’s largest wine bottle.

Largest Whisky Bottle

The record for largest whisky bottle is held by UK’s Tomintoul Distillery that produced a bottle of whisky weighing in at 164kg and stands some 144cm tall (just under 5ft), filled by hand with 105 litres (the equivalent of 150 standard bottles) of 14-year-old Tomintoul Speyside Glenlivet Scotch.

Something to eat with such Giant drinks

World’s largest Sandwich

This sandwich from Mexico holds the Guinness record for being the world’s largest weighing just over 3178 kgs. It took almost eight workers just to lift one slice of bread.  

Finally we come to India with   Largest tea party-world record set by Indore

More than 32,000 people sipped their way into a new world record as India hosted the world's largest tea party in Indore.

For making the ‘Largest Tea Party’ a success, almost 980 volunteers made 5000 litres of tea with 2500 litres of milk and water. About 250 kilograms of tea dust and sugar was used in making the tea. 

Hope you found the read interesting. The data and the pictures are from the internet and from Guinness blogs if anybody finds them inappropriate, write to me & I would remove them.

Cheers!!
