Weird cocktail names like ‘Sex On The Beach’ and ‘The Screaming Orgasm’ are so yesterday! The newest drink to make it to the list of cocktails with odd names is one that has a desi twist. The cocktail — we aren’t kidding you — is called ‘Madarc***d’. According to News18, the cocktails menu at the Equilibrium Restaurant, Singapore serves this drink, which is inspired by an Indian gaali. You can order it for the sum of $23.

How that combination of ingredients gets an expletive for a title is anyone’s guess. The drink was first ‘discovered’ when a Twitter user posted pictures of the bar’s menu and many others followed suit. If you were wondering if this was a mistake on the restaurant’s part and if they actually meant something else, then you are so wrong! The restaurant has owned up to it and are proud for reasons not many approve off. In a note shared on the Equilibrium Facebook page, the management said: “Heard of “Madar***d”? Yes, we are certainly aware of the meaning. But we aren’t swearing at you. It’s a name of our cocktail on the bar menu. We would not imagine doing it in India itself, but Singapore is a multi-racial country with little bias and a wider berth when it comes to humour. We saw the humour in introducing an Indian-inspired cocktail with a tongue-in-cheek name.” While some users on social media had a good laugh, a few others were offended. The restaurant, however, has got plenty of attention, as they have now dared patrons to come try the drink inspired by a gaali. They’ve even announced special offers for the same.
