Flip cup is a classic, popular drinking game that will surely enhance your mood. Start by standing on the opposite side of the table and filling your cup about a quarter full. Make sure the cups are evenly filled.
- Start on one end of the table with opponents facing each other.
- The first two opponents cheers, tap their cup on the table, then drink it down.
- Once the beverage is finished, set the cup on the table's edge (slightly over) and tap it from underneath until it lands face down on the table. Opponents must continue flipping their cup until it lands exactly face down on the table. (It is more challenging than you think!)
- Once the cup has landed face down, the next opponent can start their turn.
