Schorle

Yesterday at Vinnie’s birthday lunch, Mom and Dad experienced the sad surprise that tap water isn’t complimentary in German restaurants. I am not a fan of this cultural difference. I really love drinking a lot of water.

​However, since I won’t pay for tap water on principle, I’ve discovered the glory of the weinschorle: wine and sparkling water mixed. It’s priced similarly to regular water and makes my cheeks rosy.
