The Rules of Toasting -016

December 23, 2020

Just in time for the holidays, this episode is all about the history and the rules of toasting. Toasting is a ritual that dates back to the ancient Greeks who would raise a glass of wine, or blood, as a gift to the gods. Fortunately for us, champagne is the drink of choice for most toasts these days. But, there’s a right way and a wrong way to give a toast, and these rules apply in person, or if you are toasting via ZOOM. I’m a certified Protocol Consultant, so what you are about to learn in this episode will help you in any social situation.
