What other drinks did ancient Greeks drink?
The Grecians drank three types of alcoholic beverages; Wine, Beer, and Honey Mead. However, they did not drink wine undiluted, for they thought it was barbaric. Instead, they took three parts water to one part wine so that way they could still enjoy it. Although, only the men were allowed to drink it and did so at what would be called a Symposium. A Symposium is where men gather, sing poems, play music and of course…drink wine! Wine was also not aloud to be drunk with meals, except for small peiced of cheese or bread, therefore, the purpose of the Symposium.
