Hungarians invented the wine/soda combination known as
fröccs and if you feel qualified to name all the various
wine-to-water ratios, then you probably got your degree
in alcohol at a Hungarian pub.
Are any of the fröccs any good? Do you just add soda to the wine or is there a seltzer style dispenser as shown in the illustration?
- greglindahl 7y agoWatering wine is a historical thing dating back to the invention of wine. It makes bad wine taste a lot better. So I'm sure there's plenty of wine for which its fröcc tastes a lot better.
- aries1980 7y agoThe seitzer style dispenser is the way to dispense the soda to the wine that is already in a normal tumbler or high ball glass. The wine is usually a dry white, e.g. rizling, not top-of-the-line. We have a saying “it's acceptable with soda” for “good enough”, comes from the fröccs. The purpose of adding soda is to make it more refreshing in the Summer and allows to drink more without flipping over. About the ratios: https://hu.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fr%C3%B6ccs https://hu.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fr%C3%B6ccs is a good list. bor = wine, szódavíz = carbonated water.
- PappaPatat 7y ago> Are any of the fröccs any good? Not as in wine good, but on a warn day, soda and cheap wine taste fine. Same as for these moment (when I was young and piss poor), we'd buy "cooking wine" (cheapest shit on the shelf) and mix that one on one with cola. No matter how bad the wine, you can drink it easily and still get the added "benefit" of the alcohol.
