Enjoying Korea's National Drink
If you haven't heard of this drink before, then you're missing out! This strong Korean classic is a clear spirit with 20% to 24% alcohol by volume content. Like vodka, soju is neutral-tasting alcohol. However, unlike vodka, it doesn’t have a harsh alcohol burn because of its lower alcohol percentage. Though originally made from rice, this drink is now distilled using wheat, sweet potatoes, and tapioca. It’s traditionally consumed straight alongside food, but can also be mixed into cocktails. Some common items you can mix with soju include beer, yogurt, or Yakult. There are many different flavors and variations of soju for you to try, from the classic original to delightful grape!
A Sip of Japan's Signature Rice Wine
As Japan's national alcoholic beverage, sake is a fermented rice drink that has been enjoyed for centuries. It is brewed using highly polished sake mai rice, water, a mold called Aspergillus oryzae, and yeast. They are typically aged for a year or more, with most variations containing alcohol by volume content of between 15% and 20%. As a rule of thumb, higher quality sakes should be served slightly chilled, while cheaper sakes should be warmed up. However, it can be enjoyed either way depending on your personal preference.
