Gap

[ChAoS87]

I was wondering if dish (food accompanying rice) is called กับข้าว . Then is mixers(drinks that is use to blend with hard liquor/alcohol like soda, pepsi, plain water) called 'gap lao' ? I couldn't find any word that is related to 'mixers'. So that is my rough guess of the word. Thanks alot~!

The Thai word for "mixer" is มิกเซอร์ (mik-ser).

กับเหล้า should get a good laugh from your Thai friends if you explain the logic behind it. It does make sense...

[bhoydy]

With that logic of a mixer surely it should be ราดเหล้า

[a51mas]

in Thai:

mixed drink = เหล้าผสมเครื่องดื่ม

[Peppy]

With that logic of a mixer surely it should be ราดเหล้า

Another leap of logic: if male servers in bars and restaurants are known as บ๋อย, what should their female counterparts be called? Why, เกิ๋ร์ล, of course.

As we are doing funny logic, why not call a mixer หางขนไก่ ....

I don't get that one, explanation please.

Instead of ต้องถอน you could try ขนหมา for a hangover cure.

หางขนไก่ means tail of a chicken/cock or cocktail (just a joke)
