I was sufficiently intrigued by this thread to try drinking sake from a box.
All I can say is that the method must have been invented by a Japanese
"Temperance" organization if they had them long ago! It's very quaint but
cups are much more practical!

Jim, the trick is to make sure to use heavy-duty corrugated.

If you use one of those flimsy single-layer boxes, the sake
just soaks through and makes it mushy.

For a one-time use solution, try one of those little boxes
that Amazon ships with. Both corrugated _and_ it's got that
friendly smile logo on the side. Not to mention that subtle
Seattle flavor that just the thought of Amazon would impart
to your sake.



[maybe the trick is like that of drinking champagne from
the shoe of a beautiful woman. Drink your sake from one
of her shoeboxes? Probably a better bet for a whole
variety of reasons]
