I tend to run a tab, as it's usually less to tip on the tab than it is per drink.
But if I'm buying individual drinks, I'll tip $1 a drink.
Saying that, in AZ over hte weekend, the boyfs daughter got utterly hammered to the point I had to ask the bartender to stop serving her shots (she can't hold her liquor at all), which he did. I ordered two more drinks for myself and gave him $5 but that's because he cut her off at my request.
