My thoughts on Elon's Grokipedia as a Wikipedia editor, and—because Grokipedia has copied nearly verbatim many of my Wikipedia pages—inadvertently, a Grokipedia editor.

Adam Aaronson drank every cocktail: or, at least, all 102 listed in the International Bartenders Association's official list https://aaronson.org/blog/i-dr...
I Drank Every Cocktail
The International Bartenders Association, or IBA, maintains a list of official cocktails, ones they deem to be “the most requested recipes” at bars all around the world. It’s the closest thing the bartending industry has to a canonical list of cocktails, akin to the American Kennel Club’s registry of dog breeds or a jazz musician’s Real Book of standards.
