Traditionally, Greek Ouzo is mized with just ice (at least that's what my Greek friends thought me), Turkish Rakı is mixed with water and ice. In some cycles though, drinking Rakı without ice/water is a party trick (it's very bitter and strong so a very unpleasant experience - not everyone can do it).

All Izmirian's I know told me that it is okay to drink with water, but they would never do :) So I always drink pure. I quite like the taste.
