A Doctor

A doctor had a regular habit of stopping off at a bar for a hazelnut daiquiri on his way home every evening.

The bartender learned his habit and would always have the drink waiting at precisely 5:03 p.m.

One afternoon, as five o’clock approached, the bartender 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 bartender. “It’s a hickory daiquiri doc.”
