Apfelschorle FAQs
Can I use sparkling water instead of carbonated mineral water or soda water?
Yes, you can use sparkling water, but it may alter the taste slightly. Carbonated mineral water or soda water is preferred as it has a more neutral flavor that complements apple juice.
Can I make Apfelschorle in advance?
Yes, you can make Apfelschorle in advance and store it in the fridge. However, the carbonation will start to dissipate over time, so it’s best to drink it within a day or two of making it.
Can I add other flavors to Apfelschorle?
Yes, you can experiment with adding other flavors to your Apfelschorle. For example, you can add a splash of lemon juice or some fresh mint leaves for a more complex flavor profile.
