Add a word/Sounds like "BREEN" (as in "breeze") + "dees" (as in "deep")/
Meaning
The moment of raising your glass and saying a few words before everyone drinks together. In Mexico, Spain, and across Latin America the brindis is nearly mandatory at any gathering with alcohol. Skipping it feels wrong, and the person who gives the toast gets cheered or affectionately roasted depending on how it goes.
Examples
“Haz el brindis, ándale.”
“Make the toast, come on, we're all waiting.”
“El mejor brindis de la noche lo dio el abuelo a las 12.”
“The best toast of the whole night came from grandpa at midnight.”
