Smoking and Breathing
A smoker may create rings by taking smoke into his mouth and expelling it with a tongue flick, by closing the jaw, tapping the cheek, or producing a sudden burst of air with the lungs and throat. The smoker may also use any of those methods to blow into a cloud of smoke outside his mouth.
A trick often performed in conjunction with mouth-blown smoke rings is the French inhale.
It is also possible to create a vapour ring by using the same techniques on a cold day with only one's breath.
