How to serve Urban Spirit Vodka
Share
In Poland, vodka is traditionally enjoyed with a meal or snack rather than on its own. Popular
accompaniments include herring, cured meats, and pickled vegetables. It's customary to sip
slowly and appreciate the drink—downing a glass too quickly is generally considered
disrespectful.
- Neat and Chilled: Vodka is often served neat, straight from the bottle, and typically chilled to mellow the alcohol and enhance its flavor.
- Shots: It’s common to drink vodka as a shot, sometimes followed by a chaser like juice, soda, or even a pickle.
- Social Traditions: Vodka plays a central role in Polish social life, frequently appearing at meals, family gatherings, and celebrations.
- Toasts: A popular toast when drinking vodka in Poland is "Na Zdrowie!"—meaning "To your health" similar to saying "Cheers!" in English.
