When Chris Raph set his sights on the world record for mixing cocktails, he didn't want to beat the previous record, he wanted to smash it. Smash it he did! Raph, a bar manager at Minneapolis' The Stout House Dueling Pianos, mixed 662 cocktails in just 60 minutes, trumping the previous record of 389. Think you can guess the drink Raph chose for number 662? It was a drink called a Vanilla Press and is made up of 1 1/2 ounces of vanilla-flavored vodka, 2 ounces of soda, and 2 ounces of lemon-lime carbonated soft drink.
