and other German-speaking countries. From Wikipedia:

Apfelschorle (pronounced [ˈapfəlʃɔɐ̯lə] ⓘ (apple spritzer), also Apfelsaftschorle (apple juice spritzer) or Apfelsaft gespritzt (splashed apple juice, more widely used in Hesse, Bavaria, and Austria) in German, is a popular soft drink in Switzerland, Germany, and Austria.[1] It consists of carbonated mineral water and apple juice.[2] The broader category Fruchtschorle consists of any fruit juice mixed with carbonated water, but Apfelschorle is by far the most common. Spritzer (that is, wine mixed with carbonated water) is called Weinschorle.
