Our national drink is herbal tea, made from 9 different domestic herbs. The exact composition differs in details from person to person, but the rough composition is equal

In our nation we drink a 5/1 Gin Martini to celebrate everything. That is 5 jiggers of Extra dry Gin and 1 painting of Antonio Benedetto Carpano ( the inventor of Vermouth) for staring at while drinking the gin.

Beer is the national drink, typically either Wheat Beer (Weißbier) or Pale Beers (Lagers). Historically Vordanians are a nation of beer drinkers, although over time the government of East Vordania has attempted to place restrictions on the sale of beer due to assessed problems of alcoholism. The government tax beer quite heavily, which has led to a thriving trade in homebrewed beers, especially in rural areas.

Wine, of course! Ventalians consume an average of .3 litres a wine a day - or one medium-sized glass. A typical light lunch in Ventalia might consist of a small baguette with some Brie or Camembert and a glass of wine. Even children usually have a small glass of wine at dinner with the family.

Other popular drinks include beer, amaretto, and other grape alcohols (champagne, port, sherry, etc.)

Amaretto sour, a cocktail


Tarterros' (psychological) national drink is amaretto. It is often used as an ingredient in cocktails and sometimes even cooking. Wine is a close second and is indeed consumed in greater quantity. Many Tarterran drink a glass or two with dinner each day.

Just did a search on it, it can be spiked with alcohol but is traditionally served without it, so it can go either way.

:/ but then that becomes a mixed drink, this thing stays a mixed drink when you add alcohol. I'm saying it is traditionally served "virgin" but is served alcoholic in some places.

Cooked orange juice with spices in the inland.
