What is a "stinger"?

A stinger is a specialized structure found in certain animals, such as bees, wasps, and scorpions, that is used for injecting venom or delivering a painful or toxic sting. Typically located at the posterior end of the animal, a stinger is usually a sharp, needle-like structure attached to a venom gland. When the animal feels threatened or provoked, it can extend and penetrate the target, injecting venom or toxic substances. The purpose of a stinger is often for defense or capturing prey, and the venom delivered through the stinger can cause pain, paralysis, or other adverse effects. While stingers can be dangerous to humans and other animals, they serve as an effective means of protection and hunting for the organisms that possess them.

What is "stinger"?

Stinger is a classic cocktail that has been popular since the early 20th century. It is made by mixing equal parts of brandy and white crème de menthe, a sweet and mint-flavored liqueur. The mixture is then stirred with ice and strained into a chilled cocktail glass. The stinger has a smooth and refreshing taste, with the brandy providing a rich and complex flavor that is balanced by the cool and minty taste of the crème de menthe. The cocktail is often served as an after-dinner drink, and is sometimes garnished with a sprig of mint or a twist of lemon. The stinger is a simple and elegant cocktail that is easy to make and customize to suit individual tastes.
