There is a cocktail called a "Union Jack" but that seems a bit obscure if so.
do you have any letters?
Kendal Mint Cake?

isn't it in their advertising somewhere?
(I may be wrong though).
Very good Dina73.

Edmund Hillary and his team carried Romney's Kendal Mint Cake with them on the first successful ascent of Mount Everest in 1953. The packaging currently includes the following: �'We sat on the snow and looked at the country far below us � we nibbled Kendal Mint Cake.' A member of the successful Everest expedition wrote � 'It was easily the most popular item on our high altitude ration � our only criticism was that we did not have enough of it.'�

Tenzing left chocolates in the snow when they reached the summit.

Many thanks for help...I got distracted before I put in the number of letters which is 6.4.4.

I had tried all possible cocktails thinking in terms of flags but the energy giving mint cake seems to fit the bill . Have finished the rest so help on offer if required .

I feel a little embarrased now.......................(am blushing).

It was just one of those things I had in my mind and don't know where I got it from.
You've all had 'one of those moments', I'm sure.
