 Yadong
lao ( Alcohol-pickled Medicine)
To preserved dried ingredients in liquor is
one of two ways in getting the goodness
from the herbs.

The Balance of favours continue……
It is quite common for Thais to add a little bit
of salt in your fruit juices or shakes.
This concept is what lot of foreigner frown
upon.
When there is sourness or sweetness involve,
salt will find itself a comfortable space in
between.
Not only juice that you may find salty but also
desserts.
The sweaty climate lends itself to glucose,
salt, water and vitamins
 The
bitterness can be counteract with
Sweetness; hence tea and coffee
especially the traditional are basically
too sweet.
 Warn noi ( Not too sweet) became part of
the ordering words.
 Both condensed milk and evaporated
milk is heavily used in coffee.
 From
metal bowl to straws;
Thais tend to be collective
groups rather than individual.
We share food in the middle of
the table as well as drinks.
In old day, Thais drinks from the
same metal bowl not worrying
about germ spreading.
In this modern day, where
hygiene are more concerned,
straw is then widely accepted.
 Apart
from sharing with friends and show
your considersations.
 It also complies with the container used
most of the time for drinks: Plastic bags
 Drinks with crushed is basically easier to
consumed with straw.. And you know how
packed the ice is.
 Then, it becomes habit.
 It is not polite to drink from the bottle
directly.
 Whiskey
Mixer Table
In restaurants, pubs, bars, clubs in Thailand,
there are mixer table.
Thais like to drinks their whiskey with soda
and sometimes cokes. The degree of
strength is upon dek chong lao, which ends
up (most of time light)
It is harder to buy drinks by glasses in
Thailand. Purchaising on bottle based also
show group-collective behaviour of Thais.
 The
lighter drinks make the shared
bottle lasted longer; hence the design of
the venue.
 Big sofa for group gathering, opened
spaced and most of the time no wall.
 The clubs are commonly to loud to talk to
each others.
 Always freezing
 Beer
is commonly poured in glass full of
ice to ensure that it is super cold all the
time
 Beer woon ( jelly beer) is the beer that
has been slightly frozen.
 Beer also can be poured in the big jugs
and straws provided.
 Thailand
actively & continually impose
the law related to alcoholic drinks.

In 2006, the government imposed banning

 Alcohol
taxation policy allows government
to collect tax income on alcoholic
beverages. In 1999, there were adoptions of
alcohol free-trade in Thailand as the
government wanted to promote “OTOP One Tambon (sub district) One Product” to
boost up domestic economy. In 2003, there
was a tax reduction for locally- brewed rice
wine and white spirits. These factors
resulted in mass productions of alcoholic
beverages.
