A doctor made it his regular habit to stop off at a bar for a hazelnut
daiquiri on his way home. The barman knew of his habit, and would
always have the drink waiting at precisely 5:03pm.
One afternoon, as the end of the work day approached, the barman was
dismayed to find that he was out of hazelnut extract. Thinking
quickly, he threw together a daiquiri made with hickory nuts and set
it on the bar.
The doctor came in at his regular time, took one sip of the drink and
exclaimed, "This isn't a hazelnut daiquiri!"
"No, I'm sorry," replied the barman, "it's a hickory daiquiri, doc."
