酒 Alcoholic Drinks

中国有“无酒不成席”“无酒不成礼”的说法，在宴席上，酒是必不可少的饮品。

中国各地方的人普遍饮用白酒，白酒用谷物酿造而成，比较著名的白酒有茅台、五粮液等。

华东一带的人喜欢饮黄酒，黄酒也有悠久的历史。红酒、啤酒、法国的干邑白兰地、英国的威士忌等，也吸引着不少中国人。

There is a Chinese saying, “A banquet is not a banquet without liquor." Another one goes, “A banquet without liquor is a breach of etiquette.” 

As such, alcoholic drinks are a must for a banquet. It is customary for Chinese all over the country to drink baijiu, a strong Chinese liquor which is distilled from grain. Famous brands of liquor include Moutai and Wuliangye. 

Yellow wine (fermented from rice or millet), which also has a long history, is popular with the inhabitants in East China. Winc, beer, French cognac, Scotch whiskey, etc. are also popular with many Chinese people.
