A doctor made it his regular habit to stop off at a bar for a hazelnut daiquiri on his way home.
The bartender knew this and would always have the drink waiting at 5:00.
One afternoon as the end of the work day approached, the bartender was dismayed to find that he was out of hazelnuts.
Thinking quickly, he threw together a daiquiri made with hickory nuts and set it on the bar.
The doctor came in at his usual time, took one sip of the drink, and said,
"Why, this isn't a hazelnut daiquiri!"
"No," replied the bartender, "it's a hickory daiquiri, Doc."
