sans se presser / sans nous presser

One suggestion given for the translation of 'we'll drink it without rushing' is 'nous le boirons sans se presser'. Would it be wrong to say 'nous le boirons sans nous presser' instead?

Bonjour Tom,

Thank you for your question! Thanks to you, we've realised that "sans nous presser" is the better option (more precise) as "sans se presser" would be used here colloquially.

I hope this is helpful.

Bonne journée !
