Room temperature and like shots e.o.d
You drink it cold, and with disbelief in how bad it is.
Or drink it ice cold just out of the freezer like a shot. Drink it with an open faced sandwich.

Put it in the freezer, and shotdrink it. Tastes like shite, but gets you shi*faced 😂
Chilled, in a shoots glass, with food. no ice and no mixing.
Drink it straight from a shoots glass with fish-based rye-bread dishes, like pickled herring or fried plaice.
Drink it to pickled herring on rye bread.
Tastes like heaven when mixed
Ice cold and maybe together with rye bread and herring.
You can drink it as it is, or mix it with lemon soda or lemonade into a [*flyversjus*](https://gastrofun.dk/opskrift/flyversjus/).
*Snaps* and *akvavit* is traditionally drunk together with rye bread and pickled herring at Danish *julefrokost.*
I prefer mine straight off the radiator in a shot glass.
It tastes like Satans piss. You’re supposed to drink it chilled with no extras.
As cold as you can get it.
You drink it with a straight face, to give your friends a sense of safety in the milisecond before they take their shots.
straight up as shots, or as flyversjus or kaffepunch, both great
You drink it at room temp. and savour it. No freezing and not as shots. Good with pickled herring but also goes great with cheese.
Real men and women drink it at room temperature (but it does go down more pleasantly when very cold). Drink as a shot.
Do me a favor: Please taste it and give us a review here in this thread. Drink it straight up as a shot. I prefer it straight from the freezer. NO ICE!!
A lot drinks it ice cold (mostly because they actually don’t like it) I prefer it a bit warmer. Serve it with pickled herrings on rye bread.
With such abundant disapproval in the comments of our liquid national treasure, I’m concerned this subreddit has been run over by Swedes!
It’s called “boksevand” where I come from.
Pour a splash into the coffee – that’s how grandpa always drank it.
From a shot glass cold, room temp or whatever you like. Complain about how bad that shit tastes and then drink some more
Jesus Christ! Does this person hate you?
Throw it in the trash. It’s a horrible thing to drink.
There are four sanctioned ways, all wildly different:
1) Neat from the freezer.
2) Neat from the cupboard.
3) Added to black coffee.
4) Long drink mixed with lemon soda (‘flyversjus’).
1 is most common. It’s used to degrease the palate after eating pickled herring. Yes, we shoot 45% booze with the appetisers. You can image how that party is like at midnight.
2 is what separates the men from the boys.
3+4 are uncommon, but none the less part of our shared cultural heritage. I kinda like the taste of 3, but it’s very particular. Both of these are from a time when snaps was the only booze (besides beer) available to most people; ‘make do with what you have’ concoctions.
Lukewarm in a shot glas. Each shot makes you value life and about everything else that for certain tastes better.
Ice cold as shots. It’s tertible
When you drink it, your saliva glands acts like the windscreen nozzles to sprinkler fluid
Just don’t. It’s awful
Cold, in shotglasses and with sea food.
You should know that it’s brewed on boxing gloves and used condoms. Makes you wanna fight or fuck – sometimes both.
The last time I got this, I got it mixed 50/50 with tequila in a lukewarm cup. 9/10 would recommend.
Bare hold dig helt væk fra den
Careful, in my experience it makes a disproportionate amount of people want to fight. Especially women.
But drink chilled, preferably right out of the freeze in a shot glass. Bonus for serving it with pickled herring on rye bread.
First you are going to find a mug, and put a coin in the mug.
Pour coffee in the mug until the coin is no longer visible, then pour the snaps in the coffee until the coin is visible again.
Voila, you have made kaffepunch
Or you can make a flyversjus.
A bottle of bad decisions
Drinking a “snaps” from a shot glass is the way to go
Store it in the freezer. It should be drunk straight out of the freezer. If there’s no frost or condensation on the bottle, then it’s too warm.
It should be drunk straight, like a shot. No ice, no mixer, no nothing. It’s usually drunk as accompaniment to pickled herring on rye bread with something we call karrysalat on top. Like an open faced sandwich.
Karrysalat is essentially mayonnaise with capers, Madras curry powder, diced hardboiled eggs, diced onion and diced pickled cucumber.
All of it is served cold and together. Especially popular around Easter and Christmas.
When you drink it remember to sing about the burning hen house and the rooster that would not leave.
Straight with food is the traditional way.
The only mixed drink I know is “flyversjus” which is akvavit and lemon soda and kaffepunch similar to Irish coffee.
It goes well with fatty food. I.e, herring. But also e.g., bacon, liver pate, etc.
But just try is out. It is actually very good.
Some people might try to make you finish you glass in one go, which is stupid. Just take small sips and learn how it matches with different foods.
Its also known as Karate-fuel and the main ingredients in it is boxing gloves and divorce papers.
It gets you absolutely shitfaced for some reason even though its not that much stronger than whisky or vodka.
Also it taste like shit and its the “Emperors new clothes” of liquor..everyone looks like they just ate a living frog when they taste it, but keep insisting how good it is.
I hate it and I drink it still, its traditional and it gets the job done.
