Drink It Like Whiskey—with a Splash of Water or Ice Most spirits are distilled to 40 percent alcohol by volume, or 80 proof, but many rums are bottled at higher proofs. For those stiffer rums, “adding ice or a splash of water will mellow it out so the alcohol vapors don't overpower the subtle flavors,” says Vida.

Is it safe to mix alcohol with water?
When drinking alcohol beverages, adding water or other drinks without alcohol will dilute the alcohol in your stomach and will slow absorption. Eating food will also slow alcohol absorption.
Method: Fill up a glass with ice, add your favorite vodka, top with sparkling water, and squeeze in your citrus juice of choice. Classic.

Is it good to drink alcohol with hot water?
