I was expecting wine, but what can you do? It's free. I have no idea how to drink sake or what it's good with. I normally drink cocktails, mostly anything with citrus.
So, now I have this cheap-ass Hakutsuru sake that I found out costs around $9 here. I know cheap sake must be served hot (all of the instructions on the back are in french, wtf... company is from Quebec, but I could make out to serve it hot at least), but what I want to know is if it can be mixed into a cocktail?
Any sake experts out there?
Every time I've had it, I've just poured it into a sake cup and heated it up in a microwave and downed it. It's a seriously acquired taste, but wow is it quick to the whole "you're retarded now" punchline.
There's probably better ways of doing it, but the main consensus is you do not drink the stuff cold or luke warm. Piping hot is the only way.
Also, yeah you can mix it with stuff and there's plenty of drink recipe sites around the net for stuff like that. I don't know one off the top of my head for sake recipes, but I'm sure just googling "sake recipes" would be fine if you want a cocktail recipe for it.

Never had sake myself, but I can translate if you send over the label.
1. Open sake bottle.
2. Turn bottle upside down over sink or toilet.
3. Empty bottle.
4. Place empty bottle on display shelf if it has a nice label.
5. Procure bottle of Stoli.
6. Open Stoli.
7. Enjoy.

The best part of it is, it hits you, and then it's gone. There is no lingering aftertaste like a lot of liquors. I don't know if the stuff you got is worth two shits but the house sake at Sake Bomb's is quite good.
When I was still living in the dorms, we would fill a Big Gulp with beer, then drop a five-oz. sake-filled shotglass in it and chug it.

I still got a better prize than my one coworker.. She got a book called 'Show and Tell' which basically describes different products.
So, yeah. I don't think I'll be drinking this.. But I'm happy that I won. I never win anything.
