Apfelschorle Apfelschorle Apfelschorle (), also Apfelsaftschorle or Apfelsaft gespritzt in Austria, is a popular soft drink in Switzerland, Germany and Austria. It consists of carbonated mineral water and apple juice. The broader category Fruchtschorle consists of any fruit juice mixed with carbonated water, but Apfelschorle is by far the most common. Spritzer (that is wine mixed with carbonated water) is called Weinschorle. Apfelschorle contains fewer calories and is less sweet than pure apple juice. It is also nearly isotonic. This makes it popular in summer and among athletes. Commercially available Apfelschorle generally contains between 55% and 60% juice. Brands of Apfelschorle
Sparkling wine says "Tasmania confidently holds its place as Australia’s sparkling capital" with both the traditional grape varieties and method of secondary fermentation being employed. Whilst most sparkling wine is produced from Chardonnay, Pinot noir and possibly Pinot Meuniere, an Australian speciality is sparkling Shiraz, a red sparkling wine produced from Shiraz grapes. Most sparkling Shiraz is traditionally somewhat sweet, but some producers make it dry, full-bodied and tannic. Since 2012, Australian mass producers of sparkling wine have begun using screw caps in place of the traditional cork & wire closure. Chile produces around 12 million bottles of sparkling wine per annum
