What the Germans really drink? In addition I have done for you thoughts. The day starts for the Germans either with coffee or tea. To eat lunch or dinner, they like to drink mixed drinks. A popular drink is apple juice. This is apple juice mixed with sparkling water. Sparkling mineral water is carbonated. Meanwhile, there are all kinds of fruit juice mixed with sparkling water. Passion fruit juice, pineapple juice, juice, cherry juice spritzer. The advantage of juice has fewer calories, not so sweet, refreshing and easier to digest than pure juice.
Of course, the Germans also like to drink Coke or Sprite. But here they like to mix: A typical drink is specificity. Spezi is made Coke mixed with orange soda. There are specific ready mixed in bottles. Funny, is not it?
If the Germans drink alcohol, then most like wine or beer. Depending on the region that is different. There are also cocktail bars, that's for sure. But if we are talking about mixed drinks, then I remind you of the cyclists. A beer mixed with lemonade. There are many such drinks.
It used to be drunk in Germany mainly black filter coffee. Meanwhile, the Italian influences have prevailed and the coffee shops like Starbucks have come here too. So now you most like to drink espresso, cappuccino or latte macchiato. Latte Macchiato is a large glass of hot milk with milk foam, which is tilted in an espresso. In Italy, the children drink - with us adults.
Have you now get thirsty? Then I say: Cheers!
