What’s your poison? In my case, a quick G&T hits the spot quite nicely, and I’m not averse to a drop of single malt whisky, but apart from that I’m rather unadventurous when it comes to alcoholic beverages!
However, your knowledge of weird and wonderful drinks might be considerably greater than mine – or at least than mine was before I started researching questions for this quiz! Why not have a go – you might find that eliminating unlikely answers is the best way of find the correct one – and tackling the quiz while completely sober is probably to be advised!
Good luck! Hic! (sorry)

Spirits and cocktails: a quiz
You got 5 out of 10 right!
Not so bad
Thank you for sharing such a great quiz.
7 of 11 not yought amazing quiz
10 out of 10. Question 10 got me by surprise. I never knew that’s where Tequila came from.
Norman has put me right on this. The root source is blue agave, which Norman insists is not a cactus!
5 of 10 not yought amazing
I’m not much of a drinker so 5 out of 10 is quite reasonable. 🙂
If you’re not a drinker what do you usually drink Zaklina? Non alcoholic drinks? I’m more into fruits to be honest.
Water is the best choice. 🙂 Sometimes, I drink bitter lemon and it’s pretty much all. 🙂
lol, yeah you’ve tried the haggis and scotch right. hahaha. that wouldn’t be fun. Great quiz but I only got seven correct.
Not such a good score but I learned a lot!
Hey I got 9 out of 10 right, but Lady Luck was definitely blowing into my sails 😉 😉 The last one was the one I tripped on. I have to point out that your ‘correct’ answer isn’t correct (Agave is not a cactus) but that’s not the reason I got it wrong: I thought the agave was used only for flavouring rather than providing the base.
In that case I stand corrected! As I have never had a tequila in my life, I can’t claim to have any special knowledge here!
In my late teens, a girlfriend brought a bottle of the stuff into the cinema, together with the requisite salt and lemon. It was quite fun, but I remember nothing from about halfway through the film till the next morning. I won’t be trying that again!
Awesome and interesting quiz, even though I did really bad! I’m not much into drinking and coctails.
If it’s any consolation, neither am I! However, I did think that I’d put in enough “unlikely” alternatives to help boost people’s scores!
I got 3 correct…don’t know a whole lot about the subject! Great quiz though!
Well, I got 5 out of 10. Great quiz!
