Greek Drinking Culture
Greek Drinking Culture ：HALF-COCKED !
Greece is the country of four ancient civilizations. The culture of Greece and China are similar in many ways and of course, included the drinking culture as well! In Greece the most famous alcohol should be “ouzo”. Around 42 degrees, ouzo smells like a bit licorice; The proper way to drink ouzo is to put some ice cubes first and gently shake a little, till the clear liquid turn to soft white color then drink it up “enmmmmmm”; it just taste right !!!!
In Greece, people often go to restaurants and bars to drink, but they do not drink like Chinese people, who eat lot of food while drinking. Mostly the Greeks only drink with dried fruits and olives and to drink as a social habit of their culture would be Half-cocked; which means half way to be drunk what we call “Weizui” in Chinese!
