Due to the huge variety of strong alcoholic beverages, sometimes difficulties may arise with how to properly drink, for example, rum or cognac. There are special rules for serving and drinking each drink.

Instructions
Step 1
Drink cognac slowly, enjoying the pleasant aroma of the drink. This type of alcohol is served in glasses specially designed for it - snifters (a rather voluminous glass from the bottom and sharply tapering upwards on a small leg). The drink should be slightly warmer than room temperature, so warm a glass of cognac in your palms before enjoying the taste. Then rotate the glass a little to see the "legs" of the drink - oily traces flowing down the walls of the glass. Breathe in the pleasant, rich aroma, and then take a sip of cognac. In France, it is not customary to eat this drink with any food, and in Russia cognac with lemon is often used.
Step 2
There are several types of rum: white, "golden" and dark. Use white rum in cocktails because the taste of this drink is not very rich. To enjoy dark rum, drink it neat from a cognac glass. But to the "golden" rum, add cubes of people or just chill the drink well before drinking. Serve in wide glasses. Choose fruits and berries as a snack.
Step 3
If you are a true connoisseur of whiskey, serve it in tulip-like glasses. These dishes will help the drink to reveal all its multifaceted aroma and delicate taste. Like cognac, swirl the whiskey or add a few drops of very cold water. You will immediately feel the wonderful aroma of the drink. Drink whiskey in small sips.
Step 4
Serve vodka chilled to 8-10 degrees in small glasses. Drink the drink quickly in one gulp, exhaling the air before this, and eat meat or fish dishes. A large number of snacks when using this drink is required.
Step 5
Use gin both neat and in cocktails. The most famous cocktail is gin and tonic, which is served in tall glasses with a thick bottom.
Step 6
In Mexico, the homeland of tequila, they believe that you need to drink it the way you like. There it is most often drunk in one gulp. For European tequila, drip a few drops of lime on the back of your hand and sprinkle with salt. Place a small citrus wedge next to it. Then lick off the salt, wash it down with a drink and snack on lime.
