Malta Archbishop Charles Scicluna celebrated Sunday Mass (March 31) in St John’s Co-Cathedral Mass with a chalice containing whiskey.
Scicluna noticed the mishap only when he consumed what he believed was the Precious Blood of Christ. But whiskey cannot be consecrated. A concelebrant confirmed the nature of the substance in the chalice.
A second chalice on the altar had been filled with wine. Therefore Scicluna finished Mass.
According to tvm.com, a sacristan apologised for having mixed up two bottles containing wine or whiskey which were in a cabinet of the sacristy.

'mixed up', my eye !!! How can someone pick up one bottle and fill one chalice and THEN go pick up a DIFFERENT bottle ???? If somehow this can be innocently explained, that sacristan should be relieved of duty either as mendacious or as incapable.
