I got lucky.

FYI: The response when getting it in 2 guesses is ‘Magnificent’

I grew up in an "alcohol family" - my father's business was working for a wholesaler that sold to bars and restaurants - and I have never heard the term "muddle" used in mixing a drink

link to original post





"You muddled the mint well, Alejandro."

This is a line from the Futurama episode "Assie Come Home."

I've heard that to make a mint julep, you must muddle the mint, but I don't know what that means. I see on the internet that other drinks use muddled mint leaves, too.

My ancestry is from Italy, so I knew what the four pasta words had in common.
On the other hand, the last two groups were more or less guesses.
