Sake (酒; pronounced IPA: /sɑ.k?/ "SAH-KAY" in Japanese) is a Japanese alcoholic beverage, brewed from rice. It is often referred to as rice wine.

Reply:woodbridge white zinfandell by robert mondavi, a chardonnay also goes nicely with most chicken dishes.
Reply:don't serve it with sake, that's aweful!



how about a nice deep red wine, especially with the apricot chicken (that sounds awesome, give the recipe please!!)

or if you like beer, it can often be a good combo to have a nice low alcohol beer with chinese, because it will quench your thirst (rather than wine)



i have to say that i always prefer going with a red wine. personal preference.

enjoy your evening ;-)
Reply:Any white wine that's not too sweet, a Chardonnay or a light German wine like "Blue Nun"
Reply:my personal favorite is Plum Wine. It can be found in any liquor store...usual brands would be Takara or Choya. Plum Wine is also called Ume-shu. Ume-shu is made of green ume plums and white liquor called shochu (alcohol content of about 35%). Ume plum contains potassium and calcium, so ume-shu is said to be good for health. It is also sweet and delicious.



You can serve it the following ways:



1. on the rocks

2. 1 part plum wine 2 parts tonic water

3. 1 part plum wine 2 parts seltzer water

4. 1 part plum wine 2 parts hot water (non-carbonated)
Reply:A good gewurtztraminer is really nice with Chinese food. You can find it at any liquor store with a good wine selection.
