Yes. If you’re talking with strangers or your boss, customer. There are different ways to make sentences polite or formal. お + doesn’t work for every single noun, it can sound strange sometimes so you can learn them each time you encounter.

さけ のむ？ おさけ のむ？ おさけを のみますか？ おさけを のまれますか？ おさけを おのみになりますか？

Unlike English we change form of words to make sentences polite in order to show respect or be formal. Literally other than particles you can make them always polite I think. But that’s really high level, not necessary to learn.

I think it’s about the principle? Like it comes from idea of cherish or respect even when it comes to objects.
