Cultural Information and Interesting Facts[edit | edit source]

Here are a few interesting facts about Sango drinks and drinking culture:

- In Sango, it is customary to offer visitors a drink as a sign of respect and hospitality. This is particularly important in social situations, where sharing a drink can help break the ice and encourage conversation.

- While beer is widely consumed in Sango, particularly in rural areas, wine is becoming increasingly popular in urban centres.

- Sango is also known for producing a variety of fruit-based drinks, including mango and pineapple juice. These drinks are usually consumed during the summer months, when fresh fruits are in season.

- Sango is home to a wide range of tea varieties, including green tea, black tea, and herbal teas. Rooibos tea, a popular South African herbal tea, is also widely consumed in Sango.

- Coffee is not as widely consumed in Sango as tea, but it is still an important drink in Sango culture. Sango coffee is known for its bold, rich flavour, and is often brewed with a dark roast.

- In Sango, it is customary to clink glasses before drinking, as a gesture of goodwill and friendship. This is particularly important in social situations, where toast are made to honour significant occasions.

- Milk is an important drink in Sango culture, particularly among children and older adults. It is often consumed with meals, and is also used as an ingredient in various traditional dishes.

- Drinking water is essential in Sango, particularly in hot, dry areas where hydration is key. In some rural areas, access to clean drinking water is limited, and so bottled water is often recommended.
