(乾杯, a Japanese toast, from Chinese words meaning "dry cup"). The sake bomb chant may also be said before drinking. The chant has one person say "sake" and others say "bomb", before consuming the drink. It is usually made with cold sake.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
