Impress everyone at your New Years Eve party by sabering open a bottle like some Napoleonic Hussar of yore! Happy New Year!

Happy New Year Everyone! Today I'm teaching you the proper technique to saber open bottles of champagne, and I talk a bit about the history of the practice. I also play a game I call "Will it Saber?" in which I attempt to saber with various objects around my bar. It gets pretty creative, and I get through a lot of bottles. Several cases of them actually. I also get cut up. It's a good one and it's how I'm closing out 2019! And by the way, THANK YOU all so much for making 2019 the BEST YEAR EVER For How to Drink! This episode is dedicated to you.

If you decide to try this, please be extremely careful. The bottle top flies off with incredible force and will destroy, maim, injure, or kill anything in its path. I'm not joking. Additionally as you'll see here, it's really not so safe for the person doing the sabering either.

Slowly but surely, I'm starting a mailing list so that I'm not fully dependent on YT's algorithmized notifications system. If you'll sign up, I promise not to abuse your generosity, or sell your info to anyone. It's over on the blog right here:
