    What are three of the four alcohols usually present in a Long Island Iced Tea?

    I believe the answer is Real Madrid, although I am not sure. I was confused by the official UEFA page. If the answer is correct (whicH I think it is not, seeing as according to the UEFA site, Madrid LOST the Super Cup final to Galatasaray 1-2) here's a question:

    With what Nobel Prize was Winston Churchol awarded?

    (GOtta run now)
