"belt a national concoction"
While I was reading IHT, I saw this sentence.
:In a country that proudly cites "drinking, singing and dancing" as a national trait, belting a national concoction calld "the bomb" - a brimming glass of beer with a shot glass of wiskey in it - is considered the best way of building office camaraderie.
What does "belting a national concoction" mean?
I think "belt" has another meaning.
