At each step, be sure to "clink" or touch glasses.

So, you need to find a friend to practice with.

"Arriba" (Literally translates to "up". Glass held high, you touch the rim of your glass)
"Abajo" (Literally translates to "down". Glass held low, you touch the bottom of your glass)
"Al centro" (Literally translates to "center". Glass held out in front, touch the middle of your glass)
"Pa' dentro or Adentro" (Literally translates to "inside". Drink from glass immediately, bottoms up!)

Simple, right? Well, I say you head to the closest cantina (bar) and practice this until you get it right.

For your mental health, just in case your spirit needs a lift.

¡Arriba, abajo, al centro, pa' dentro!
