A drink, or beverage, is a liquid which is specifically prepared for human consumption. In addition to filling a basic human need, beverages form part of the culture of human society.

Water

Main article: Drinking water

Despite the fact that all beverages contain water, water itself is not classed as a beverage. The word beverage has traditionally been defined as not referring to water.

Alcoholic beverages

Main article: Alcoholic beverage

An alcoholic beverage is a drink that contains ethanol, commonly known as alcohol (although in chemistry the definition of “alcohol” includes many other compounds).

Beer has been a part of human culture for 8,000 years. In Germany, Ireland, the United Kingdom, and many other European countries, drinking beer (and other alcoholic beverages) in a local bar or pub is a cultural tradition.

If I am 18, am I automatically eligible to serve alcoholic beverages in Florida?
Q. I am applying for a job with the Marriot to hostess and maybe wait tables in one of their restaurants. They want to know if I am eligible to serve alcohol, and I am 18. I will not be applying for any bar-tending positions, so do I need some kind of special license or anything? Or does age automatically qualify you to serve alcoholic beverages? *The reason I ask is because they already asked previously if I were at least 18, so I don't know if they are just being thorough or if there are any extra requirements.

A. The requirement to serve alcohol is that you must be 18 years of age. I was a bartender/server when I was 18 and that is what I was told. There is no special license or certification to get. (I am from Florida as well) Here is a link that explains it further:

Why is it that some people are capable of drinking lots of alcoholic beverages?
Q. Sometimes me and my friends drink beer or any other alcoholic beverages, but I can't drink as much as them, I tend to puke when I reach my limit, but my friends rarely reach that point. What could be the explanation to this? Is there something I can do so I could be able to drink more. Thanks.

A. Oh honey...just don't try to keep up! Have one or two, don't make the mistake of trying to drink a great deal of alcohol. People have died trying...for real! It's no big deal to say, "I like a beer or two, but that's my limit and I refuse to operate a vehicle if I happen to drink". You'll be a winner, I promise if you just follow this advise.

Can premixed alcoholic drinks( as different from fermented malt beverages) be sold in washington state?
Q. If they can be sold, there would be issues over where they could be sold (liquor store or supermarket??) Because pre mixed beverages have actual liquor in them they might not be able to be sold in supermarket even though ABV is around 5%
Asked by David S - Wed Jan 16 18:59:52 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. They are sold, however, it is in liquor stores. For instance, I can get bottled Kahlua drinks at the liquor store, but not the grocery store.
