house pour
Cheapest cocktail option
House pour is a bar or restaurant's standard, unnamed spirit served when a customer orders a drink without specifying a brand: I'll have a gin and tonic—that gets you the house pour.
It's typically a lower-priced option compared to premium or top-shelf liquors.
Also called the well drink or rail pour.
