🇨🇦🇩🇪🇨🇳张殿李🇨🇳🇩🇪🇨🇦So, I thought it was time to go <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/traditional?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#traditional</a>. It's getting colder so I thought I'd start drinking <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/booze?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#booze</a> the old <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Chinese?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Chinese</a> way: warmed. To this end I got a wine warmer set.<br>
<br>
Today's <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/experiment?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#experiment</a> is starting relatively mildly with the [<a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Hakka?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Hakka</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/glutinous?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#glutinous</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/rice?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#rice</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/wine?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#wine</a>](<a href="https://pixelfed.social/i/web/post/559169315722272304" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://pixelfed.social/i/web/post/559169315722272304</a>) I'd mentioned earlier. It's 25%, but it drinks like fruit juice and is thus exceptionally dangerous for those of us who don't like drunkenness.<br>
<br>
(N.B. I don't like being drunk. I love being tipsy; the feeling of a drink inside of me. I hate feeling drunk.)<br>
<br>
The results were very interesting. Some of them I expected (the drink is no longer dangerous: it is very clearly a potent alcoholic beverage when warmed!), but some of them unexpected (the flavour profile changes dramatically, giving it a "sparkling" sensation on the tongue and making the sour complex of flavours stand out in the forefront). It's still sweet. It still tastes delicious. But it's an entirely new beverage and it no longer brings with it the accidental drunkenness the cooled version brings.<br>
