Most of the world thinks of beer when they think about German drinks. However, there are many other beverages that Germans love to drink. In this video, we taste-test 10 of the most popular local drinks.

Beer Isn’t the Only Drink Germans Enjoy

What?! There are drinks Germans like as much as or even MORE than beer?! 🤣😉 Hopefully, we all know by now that stereotypes like this one, all Germans love beer, are pretty silly. There are many other drinks that Germans love, and in this video, we will share them all with you! Some of these drinks Americans have never heard of or seen! We talk about Mineralwasser/Sprudelwasser (Sparkling water), Spetzi, Schorles, Radlers, cocktails (like Holler Spritz and Aperol Spritz!), Eiskaffee, fruit juice, coffee, and tea.

Also, we dive a bit into the SUGAR content in drinks between the USA and Germany. I’m sure you can guess who has more sugar in their drinks…but do you know how much or why?

Our Story

In February of 2021, we packed up our American family of six, with four kids ages 11 and under, and moved halfway across the world to Germany to follow our dream of living in Europe again! When we were first married, we lived for two years in France and fell in love with the European way of life. Moving to Germany has been a whirlwind, especially with four kids in tow, but we’re already growing stronger and better from the experiences we are having. It has NOT been easy, but that’s how it usually is in life when you go after your dreams!
