Apfelschorle ( pronounced ['apf? l ??? l?] Ã, ( listen ) ), 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 fruit juice mixed with carbonated water, but Apfelschorle is by far the most common. Spritzer (ie wine mixed with carbonated water) is called Weinschorle .
Apfelschorle contains fewer calories and less sweet than pure apple juice. It's also almost isotonic. This makes it popular in summer and among athletes. The commercially available apfelschorle generally contains between 55% and 60% juice.
The Apfelschorle brand in Germany includes the Lift (Coca-Cola Company brand), Gerolsteiner (which also sells mineral water), Rhodius and Bizzl. However, in most bars and restaurants, Apfelschorle is mixed ad hoc from apple juice and carbonated water.
In Australia, Apfelschorle is also called "Chrissy".
