Ouzo drinking is an art. Or maybe it’s a way of life. Whatever it is, Lesvos is known for its ouzo. Most cafe owners in Greece will admit that the best ouzo comes from here … The key to drinking ouzo is to eat snacks known as mezedes … Don’t be macho. Drink ouzo with water. When you pour the water in the ouzo will turn a milky white. How much to pour in is a matter of taste. A good trick is to water it down as you drink it. In other words you keep adding water. Ouzo Plomari, one of my favourites, is the only ouzo sold with a replaceable cork. (from Matt Barrett’s ‘diary’ which can be accessed through gogreece.about.com/ library/weekly/aa100298.htm) |
