Similar to the brandy<\/a>, rum<\/a>, and gin<\/a> trivia quizzes I wrote for the world's best online trivia league<\/a> in past years, a few months ago I wrote a quiz of images of barware. I thought readers may be interested, so I'll include the questions and answers here.<\/p>\n

I was chuffed that 1430 people played this…and now you can too! (N.B.: These questions were written for a general audience; most committed cocktailians will likely find the bulk of them to play pretty easy.)<\/p>\n

I've obscured the answers by putting them in white text on a white background; just highlight the area between the brackets to see what's there. In a couple days I'll make another post with my recap notes, color, history, and whatever else I found interesting when I was researching these.<\/span> Here's that recap<\/a>.<\/p>\n

1.    Some drinks (Hurricanes, Zombies, Margaritas, Collinses, and others) are traditionally served in their own glassware. What capital drink is shown here?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Q01\"<\/a><\/p>\n

[MOSCOW MULE<\/span>]<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2.    What spirit is traditionally prepared using these somewhat misleadingly named "fountains"?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Q02\"<\/a><\/p>\n

[ABSINTHE<\/span>]<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

3.    This variety of citrus squeezer is sometimes known as the Mexican __________. What body part's name fills in the blank?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Q03\"<\/a><\/p>\n

[ELBOW<\/span>]<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

4.    Don't get mixed up when making cocktails. Some drinks call for citrus or herbs to be pressed in the mixing glass or shaker to release their flavorful oils. What's the name of the tool that's used for this?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Q04\"<\/a><\/p>\n

[MUDDLER<\/span>]<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

5.    A _________ bag is a canvas bag used for crushing ice.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Q05\"<\/a><\/p>\n

[LEWIS<\/span>]<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

6.    These tools for measuring liquid ingredients are available in many different designs. What are they known as?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Q06\"<\/a><\/p>\n

[JIGGER(S)<\/span>]<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

7.    These twigs, from the Quararibea turbinata<\/em> tree, are used in the Caribbean to mix drinks with crushed ice. In Martinique, they're known as "bois l\u00e9l\u00e9." What alliterative name are they also known by?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Q07\"<\/a><\/p>\n

[SWIZZLE STICK(S)<\/span>]<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

8.    There are three types of shakers shown here. From left to right, what are they called?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Q09\"<\/a><\/p>\n

[JULEP, HAWTHORNE<\/span>]<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

10.    What holiday drink popular in the Upper Midwest – somewhat akin to a boozy hot eggnog – is traditionally served in these bowl-and-mug sets? Early bartender and author Jeremiah P. Thomas claimed to have invented the drink and to have named it after two of his pet mice, but it actually predates him.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Q10\"<\/a><\/p>\n

[TOM AND JERRY<\/span>]<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

11.    This glass, named for the Scottish crystal company that developed it, is widely used for tasting whisk(e)y. What's it called?<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/a> \"Q11\"<\/a><\/p>\n

[GLENCAIRN<\/span>]<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

12.    Time to celebrate – you've made it to the end of the quiz! The gadget shown here shares its two-word name with a nickname for a successful lumbar puncture, which extracts cerebrospinal fluid with no red blood cells in the sample. (Some med schools have a tradition in which the supervising neurologist rewards a trainee with a bottle of bubbly the first time they accomplish this.) What's that name?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Q12\"<\/a><\/p>\n
