Drinking together = SYMPOSIUM
Borrowed from Latin symposium, from Ancient Greek συμπόσιον (sumpósion, “drinking party”) from συμπίνω (sumpínō, “drink together”) συν- (sun-, “together-”) + πίνω (pínō, “drink”).
1. A conference or other meeting for discussion of a topic, especially one in which the participants make presentations.
2. A drinking party in Ancient Greece, especially one with intellectual discussion.
