If an Economy or Main Cabin customer requests vodka on the rocks, how should they be served?

Serving vodka on the rocks involves presenting the drink with ice to achieve the proper temperature and dilution that enhances the flavor. The correct answer, which suggests serving a full cup of ice along with a mini vodka bottle, allows the customer to pour the vodka over the ice themselves. This provides a more personalized experience as they can control the amount of vodka they consume, ensuring it's served exactly how they like it.

In this setup, the mini vodka bottle avoids waste and enables flexibility, as customers can adjust their drink to their preference. This method aligns with standard service practices in hospitality where customer choice and satisfaction are prioritized in drink preparation.

Other options don't meet the request for "on the rocks." A shot glass of vodka would offer a concentrated amount without ice, a can of soda does not align with the request for vodka on the rocks, and serving vodka without ice fails to comply with the definition of the beverage that is requested. The emphasis on the ideal serving method emphasizes both the need for refreshing presentation and the importance of customer experience during in-flight service.
