In Greece a traditional drink is ouzo, an anise-flavoured spirit which can be consumed neat or mixed with water.
Another traditional drink is tsipouro which is a strong distilled spirit containing approximately 45 percent alcohol by volume and is produced from what is left of grapes after the wine making process. On my island Crete it is known as tsikoudia or raki.

    The Belgian traditional food is fries with lots of mayonnaise. We like to eat it with mussels or stewed meat.
Our traditional drink is beer. We �ve got lots of brands, alcohol percentages and tastes.
And maybe you �ve already heard about our delicious Belgian chocolates?

Guys, you got me inspired to cook something nice today. Sonn said very well about foods we eat in Russia. Hope the class will go great. But in my experience if you have a class about food, you have to bring some snacks, cause everyone will get pretty hungry watching those pics and talking about it))))

In the Czech Republic beer is VERY popular. We usually order a pint and our beer has a high foam cap. Unfortunately, the side effect of this beverage is that the men often have a beer belly :-)

There is a very typical beverage made in Galicia, a region of Spain, that is called "queimada". It �s usually drunk as part of a celebration of some type.
The "queimada" is normally made with a type of "aquavit" called aguardiente, pieces of fruit like apple, oranges, etc, some sugar and sometimes even, coffee beans. The queimada is then warmed up over a fire, in a clay pot, and when the sugar is melted, the liquid is set on fire to burn off some of the excess alcohol since most times the "aguavit" (or augardiente here) is homemade and very strong.
I am not a fan of this drink but since you were in need of different traditional drinks, I thought I �d mention this one. :)
