Before we dive straight into this post, brace up, open your mind because we sure can bet there is a 100% chance you are doing it wrong.
Long before now, Whiskey lovers have always debated whether it’s better to drink it straight, mixed with a soft or energy drink or with a dash of water. No matter the outcome of the debate, it’s always been a matter of personal preference, but now scientists have weighed in on what makes everyone’s favorite brown spirit taste the best.
Not to bore you with long scientific jargon, According to a new study published in Scientific Reports, researchers after so many tests, concluded that there is a fine balance between diluting your whiskey with a slight amount of water to make it better or adding so much water that it loses the properties that make it taste so damn good.
While a little water alone could get the job done a few other factors such as the size of the ice cube and the surface area of the glass probably also plays a part in the experience one has with each sip.
In conclusion, mixing with some soft or energy drink is really not a bad idea but should you need to get the best feel from each sip? Try it with a splash of water.
