that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) prohibited blowing in one's drink
Abu Sa‘īd al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) prohibited blowing in one's drink. A man said: “Sometimes, I see a speck in the vessel. What should I do then?” He replied: “Spill it.” Then the man said: “My thirst is not quenched with one draught.” He said: “Then remove the cup from your mouth (in between three gulps, and take a breath).”
Explanation
The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) prohibited blowing in one's drink. A man asked him: “O Messenger of Allah, there might be a speck in it, so one blows in it to remove it.” The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Spill the water that has the speck in it, and do not blow in it.” Then the man asked him: “My thirst is not quenched with one breath.” So the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) ordered him to remove the cup from his mouth, take a breath, and then drink again.
