what do you call them ?

Red, black, cake, bun, Oh I'm so confused. I thought that current was a reference to the present time or something to do with electricity.

the standard phrase may be different there, but it certainly isn't "a pint".

I think in Scotland ,whilst they refer to pint, the consumption of any alcoholic drink is often referred to as " wee swally" how puzzling would that be Marianna south of the Mason-Dixon Line if a Scot said "giz a wee swally "
