Lemon Slam
Why do we clink glasses and toast before drinking?
MOREBanging of wooden mugs or metal bowls of liquor is a medieval custom of spilling each others drink into the others mug, to make sure that no one tried to spike the other's drink with poison, sailors did it, guests in a tavern would do it too.
The host of a meal would drink from the bottle for the guests first and then all would clink glasses to ensure the host didn't spike their drink. The level of trust was absolutely measly back in the days, but with time the custom became a cheerful custom of showing trust, honesty and a toast to good health.

Lemon Slam Recipe
Pour Vodka into an ice-filled glass until 80% full. Using a spoon, drop sugar on top until it forms a large peak on top of the ice. Pour in lemon juice until the glass is about 90-95% full, and using your spoon, stir the mixture for about 30 seconds (or until the ingredients are perfectly mixed). Note: Exact measurements are not used due to the fact that certain people prefer different amounts of sugar and lemon juice.
