In Taiwan, 米酒 (rice wine) is most commonly associated with the clear, distilled variety used in everyday cooking, such as the brand 紅標米酒 (Red Label Rice Wine). Japanese sake (清酒) is a fermented rice wine typically served as a drink rather than used in cooking. Learners should distinguish rice wine from rice vinegar (米醋), which is sour and used for pickling or dressings.
