Hosszúlépés - best way to get your daily dose of water

[mira o'karr]

i have been traveling europe for the last month seemingly following the heat wave.
i dont think i had a day under 35 degrees since early june.

2 weeks ago i learned about the hungarian tradition of wine with sparkling water.
i know spritzer and i was never that keen but the hungarians have a name for any ratio mix and seriously, it is the best thing to drink in this heat. screw beer, screw pure water.

have a Hosszúlépés (long step 1 part wine 2 parts water)
i prefer rose but white wine is fine too

Drinking out of a jam jar, always the classy option :P

This is literally the gayest thing I've read today

[FatFreddy]

It's awesome, but 1 part 2 wine parts water is terrible on the grounds of too much water. Srsly.

nah I don't know. I'd say fairly even, Radler is sometimes too sweet for my liking.

Spritzer is almost* the best thing to get hammered on though because you can easily adjust to your needs. Which means just got off the bike? More diluted. Already had a few? Drink rest of wine from the bottle.

*too much piss

Are you guys seriously defending drinking a wine spritzer?

You know its literally a cliche its referenced so much as a drink for children, faggots and pregnant women only?

If you like spritzers I have an even better suggestion you should try - its called "wine" - its like a spritzer but without all the watered down shit only a baileys-drinking neckbeard could defend.

You would probably get a heartattack when watching continental yuropean TV then, judging by the amount of Aperol Spritz (now that is a drink that gets on my fucking nerves because every cunt drinks if because of marketing) ads that have been running since last summer I think (have no TV myself).

It's a traditional summer drink especially in austrian wine regions, and surrounding regions as well though.

While visiting my relatives, who own a vineyard some time ago (got up at 11, met my uncle at noon):

"You drank anything yet?"
"Nope"
"Gotta have a white mixture (= local name for spritzer) then!"
*puts one in my hand*

And I have yet to experience a strange desire to bum other men in the anus while drinking spritzer, but maybe the british motherland has brought up some funky grape varietes vOv

By the same token one would assume it was socially acceptable to drink:
Southern Comfort and Coke (adverts "mine's a soco")
Bacardi Breezers ("Latin Spirit for Everyone")
WKD ("have you got a WKD side?")
etc.

Hint: the reason they advertise it so heavily is that no real men drink that shit so they consider it an "untapped market".

Really I thought it was because they want to bring peace and joy to the world, are you saying ads actually serve the purpose of manipulation to reach researched market goals? Horrifying.

I don't understand what makes you so mad though~

fun fact: You know all the slogans for "faggy" drinks by heart apparently, I don't know a single one of them.

UK TV is saturated by them around 9 - 11 pm.

As I said above - if you like spritzers try drinking wine.

spritzers are the shandy of grape beverages.

[FatFreddy]

As I always claim, not owning a TV is truly a wonderful thing that bring much peace and quiet to your life and actually clears your head from truly rank stuff, such as marketing campaigns.

[Stoffl]

Lallante ITT: 70% trolling, 30% elitist fage.


Seriously though, a Sommerspritzer or Radler(= 1 part Lager/Märzen 1 part Lemonade) is against thirst. A nonshit alternative to water or lemonade.
Also, don't lecture me bro. I grew up in wine country. Everyone including my grandparents had a vineyard, cellars and winepresses.
Very fond childhood memories of grape harvest during fall. Fuck harvesting machines (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/93/Selbstfahrer_ohne_Selektion_GV09_11.jpg/398px-Selbstfahrer_ohne_Selektion_GV09_11.jpg), they be withcraft!

Nope, that's wine coolers you're talking about.
Not my fault US/UK hipster faggots somehow discovered the Spritzer a couple years ago. :/

taking advice from the nation with the worst taste in food/drinks, nope.

This may be hard for you to stomach, but I do both. A grave heresy, but I managed to dodge the winequisition so far.

m8 it is always rather funny seeing you trying to troll, but isn't it rather boring soon to type "LOL GAY" in four different varieties?

edit: Also, that murican cocktail list is unsurprisingly BS, because there is no lemon in a spritzer.

Actually a lot of people make a white wine spritzer with a twist of lemon.

Again, you have more knowledge of "gay drinks" than I do. Is it the suppression that's causing this emotional ruckus with you?

Yes. I drank some spritzers once and was molested. Are you happy now?

[FatFreddy]

Probably mis?took you for one of them due to your strange obsession with "gay" drinks.

i had a wonderful white wine and fruit drink the other day - not exactly a spritzer but it tasted amazing - the wine was added for flavour, not for the alcohol ofc.

[Tools]

I don't understand the need for these semi-alcoholic summer drinks.

[NoirAvlaa]

I don't really understand how "My taste buds tell me that this drink is nice" equates to "I'm gay". Drink whatever you find nice and stop worrying about taking it in the anus because of what's in a glass (Though some people worry because that's the end goal of the night)

I like spritzers and shandies. I also like cider, beer, lager, tequila, cachaca and some whiskies. Neither of them turn me into a stereotype, I just drink what I feel like drinking at any given moment.

Spritzers are really nice when it's hot :) Refreshing as fuck.

I live in a country where spritzer is THE summer drink. Nobody makes it with a twist of lemon. Seriously go to a country where they actually have a decent taste in food and wine and stop bullshitting.

I personally prefer radler for summer instead of spritzer (not much of a wine person) and how can you call it sweet? It has no additional sweets in it well at least the way I drink/make it.

Please tell me more about how a designation of land has a taste in food and drink.

[Badboy K]

my father used to make a drink when i was little, 1 dcl of white wine, 2 dcl of cold water, 1 table spoon of sugar....i love to drink it when i'm thirsty; but i make my version 1,5 dcl wine, 3dcl cold water + 2 table spoons of sugar...since i'm not a wine person

its awesome drink if you're thirsty, if you wanna get wasted in process just add more wine and less water, sugar to your taste

Drinks a liter twice at work, once at home, and once at the gym checkin in.
