Cardinal Richelieu Posted August 11, 2014 Author Share Posted August 11, 2014 6 out of 10. Tread carefully though. Usually it warns you if you've failed to answer one but not today. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bully Wee Villa Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Think the Hindi word for "six" is pronounced "sex". You pervert. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross. Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Only the 5. The "Snakebite" cocktail question. I've worked in bars all over the place and in different places it is a different drink. Mostly though, Cider, Beer and Blackcurrant is known as Diesel. Add a vodka and it becomes snakebite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteRoseKillie Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Seven - first six then poor guessing and the last one right. Happy with that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've worked in bars all over the place and in different places it is a different drink. Mostly though, Cider, Beer and Blackcurrant is known as Diesel. Add a vodka and it becomes snakebite. In all my time in the trade, admittedly entirely Yorkshire based, snakebite is lager and cider. Add blackcurrant, and there you go.In one pub, we had a mad mare of a regular who added Pernod to this already unappetising concoction. Called it a Red Witch, or something like. ETA : I've just realized they refer to Snakebite as a "cocktail"! Edited August 11, 2014 by WhiteRoseKillie 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me too. Used to have a killer drink in North Wales which was a half of cider with a bottle of triple X Guinness, which you don't see anymore, but they kept making it in Nigeria for a while. It was stronger than normal Guinness as I recall. Can't remember the name of the mix. Knocked you out though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've served it as described in the quiz, under that name, but I've found that in different areas it seems to have it's own variation. Would always ask how they wanted it served just to be on the safe side. ETA - 5/10 today. Edited August 12, 2014 by Ross. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
