And so we begin...


I was supposed to be in Boston this week with Halloween haunting at Beacon Hill. Due to a possible grandbaby showing up sooner than expected I cancelled the trip. This is the best I could do--about 5 miles from my home.

I think you should just come visit me for Halloween. I was going to be Coco Chanel and we could speak French to each other, n'est-ce pas?

Lynette,
I give you wikipedia:
Non-alcoholic Spritzer
In the United States, some non-alcoholic carbonated juices are sold as spritzers. The same type of carbonated juice (actually made with juice and carbonated mineral water) is known in Germany as Saftschorle or Fruchtschorle. (Both short for rarely used Fruchtsaftschorle.) Particularly Apfelschorle (apple juice spritzer) is one of the most popular soft drinks in Germany. In Austria Apfelschorle is called Apfelsaft g'spritzt. ... g'spritzt can be combined with every juice (e.g. Orangensaft g'spritzt or Pago/Cappy g'spritzt (producers of juices).

In order to understand what a spritzer is, one must understand the process through which a spritzer is made. For instance, you mix orange juice and bubbly water: that's an orange spritzer. You mix pineapple juice with bubbly water: that's a pineapple spritzer. Bubbly water with a splash of lemonade: that's a lemonade spritzer. Some also do it with iced tea, if you want to know the whole truth.
