About Cocktail or Color?

What makes this quiz tricky?

Both cocktails and colours follow the same naming pattern — an evocative adjective paired with a vivid noun. Blue Lagoon is a real cocktail; Cobalt Blue is a real paint colour. Without prior knowledge, the names are almost indistinguishable.

Are the cocktail names real?

Yes. Every cocktail in the game is an established recipe — from classics like White Russian and Pink Lady to lesser-known gems like Green Ghost and Brown Derby. No names were invented.

Are the colour names real?

Yes. All colour names are used in design, fashion, or paint systems — Midnight Blue, Burnt Orange, Sage Green, and so on. They were chosen specifically because they share the same stylistic register as the cocktails.

What is the Paired Quiz mode?

In Paired mode the game uses 10 fixed Cocktail ↔ Colour pairs that share the same dominant hue — for example Blue Lagoon is paired with Cobalt Blue. For each pair the game randomly shows either the cocktail or the colour, so no two sessions are identical.

Can I submit a question or name suggestion?

Yes! If you know a cocktail or colour name that would fit perfectly, head over to the Submit a Question page and share it with the community.
