But what they mix it with and what other drinks they like to combine is a fact that is hardly known beyond the country&#8217;s borders. Time to change that! Here are five mixed drinks you should know if you are in Germany.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mixed drinks \u2013 yes, that does indeed sound a bit boring by itself. That&#8217;s why there are special names for such mixtures in Germany. These probably mean nothing to guests from abroad. And even within the country&#8217;s borders, there are sometimes comprehension problems. We will explain and introduce the Germans&#8217; favorite mixed drinks in more detail:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-radler\">Radler<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This mixed drink is also another word for cyclist. This is no coincidence, because in 1922, a <strong>Munich <\/strong>innkeeper mixed his beer with lemonade and then served his drink as a \u201cRadlerma\u00df\u201d. This was, of course, so that his cycling guests would not have to stagger home. Traditionally, light beer is used, but in parts of Bavaria, dark beer is also used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/shandy-radler-beer-bottle-glass-c-shutterstock-oizostudio.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/shandy-radler-beer-bottle-glass-c-shutterstock-oizostudio-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"A flip-top bottle next to a beer tulip with a shandy, next to it are some lemons.\" class=\"wp-image-17100\" srcset=\"https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/shandy-radler-beer-bottle-glass-c-shutterstock-oizostudio-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/shandy-radler-beer-bottle-glass-c-shutterstock-oizostudio-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/shandy-radler-beer-bottle-glass-c-shutterstock-oizostudio-883x589.jpg 883w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/shandy-radler-beer-bottle-glass-c-shutterstock-oizostudio-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/shandy-radler-beer-bottle-glass-c-shutterstock-oizostudio-1155x770.jpg 1155w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/shandy-radler-beer-bottle-glass-c-shutterstock-oizostudio-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/shandy-radler-beer-bottle-glass-c-shutterstock-oizostudio-770x514.jpg 770w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/shandy-radler-beer-bottle-glass-c-shutterstock-oizostudio-293x196.jpg 293w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/shandy-radler-beer-bottle-glass-c-shutterstock-oizostudio-1400x934.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/shandy-radler-beer-bottle-glass-c-shutterstock-oizostudio.jpg 1750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/shandy-radler-beer-bottle-glass-c-shutterstock-oizostudio-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"A flip-top bottle next to a beer tulip with a shandy, next to it are some lemons.\" class=\"wp-image-17100\" srcset=\"https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/shandy-radler-beer-bottle-glass-c-shutterstock-oizostudio-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/shandy-radler-beer-bottle-glass-c-shutterstock-oizostudio-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/shandy-radler-beer-bottle-glass-c-shutterstock-oizostudio-883x589.jpg 883w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/shandy-radler-beer-bottle-glass-c-shutterstock-oizostudio-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/shandy-radler-beer-bottle-glass-c-shutterstock-oizostudio-1155x770.jpg 1155w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/shandy-radler-beer-bottle-glass-c-shutterstock-oizostudio-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/shandy-radler-beer-bottle-glass-c-shutterstock-oizostudio-770x514.jpg 770w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/shandy-radler-beer-bottle-glass-c-shutterstock-oizostudio-293x196.jpg 293w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/shandy-radler-beer-bottle-glass-c-shutterstock-oizostudio-1400x934.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/shandy-radler-beer-bottle-glass-c-shutterstock-oizostudio.jpg 1750w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">oizostudio \/ shutterstock<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In northern Germany, Pils is mixed with lemonade. But watch out: here the drink is called \u201cAlsterwasser\u201d! Because the color of the mixture is reminiscent of the <strong>Hamburg <\/strong>river of the same name. The name is less well known in the <strong>M\u00fcnsterland <\/strong>region, where, by the way, orange lemonade is used instead of lemonade. And it certainly takes an effort for strangers to order the mixture, because there they traditionally order a \u201cWurstwasser\u201d, sausage water. Why? Well, guess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Spezi<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Not a German drink in particular, because cola and orangeade are mixed all over the world. Nevertheless, probably every child in Germany knows what a \u201cSpezi\u201d is. The name is not a popular invention, but has been the brand name of an <strong>Augsburg <\/strong>brewery since 1956. By the way, if you&#8217;re not quite sure what it&#8217;s called, you can simply order a \u201cKola-Mische\u201d. Then every child knows what you want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/cola-orange-mix-glass-c-shutterstock-NatalyaBond.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/cola-orange-mix-glass-c-shutterstock-NatalyaBond-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"A hand pours orange soda into a glass with cola\" class=\"wp-image-17104\" srcset=\"https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/cola-orange-mix-glass-c-shutterstock-NatalyaBond-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/cola-orange-mix-glass-c-shutterstock-NatalyaBond-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/cola-orange-mix-glass-c-shutterstock-NatalyaBond-883x589.jpg 883w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/cola-orange-mix-glass-c-shutterstock-NatalyaBond-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/cola-orange-mix-glass-c-shutterstock-NatalyaBond-1155x770.jpg 1155w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/cola-orange-mix-glass-c-shutterstock-NatalyaBond-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/cola-orange-mix-glass-c-shutterstock-NatalyaBond-770x513.jpg 770w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/cola-orange-mix-glass-c-shutterstock-NatalyaBond-293x195.jpg 293w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/cola-orange-mix-glass-c-shutterstock-NatalyaBond-1400x934.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/cola-orange-mix-glass-c-shutterstock-NatalyaBond.jpg 1750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/cola-orange-mix-glass-c-shutterstock-NatalyaBond-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"A hand pours orange soda into a glass with cola\" class=\"wp-image-17104\" srcset=\"https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/cola-orange-mix-glass-c-shutterstock-NatalyaBond-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/cola-orange-mix-glass-c-shutterstock-NatalyaBond-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/cola-orange-mix-glass-c-shutterstock-NatalyaBond-883x589.jpg 883w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/cola-orange-mix-glass-c-shutterstock-NatalyaBond-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/cola-orange-mix-glass-c-shutterstock-NatalyaBond-1155x770.jpg 1155w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/cola-orange-mix-glass-c-shutterstock-NatalyaBond-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/cola-orange-mix-glass-c-shutterstock-NatalyaBond-770x513.jpg 770w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/cola-orange-mix-glass-c-shutterstock-NatalyaBond-293x195.jpg 293w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/cola-orange-mix-glass-c-shutterstock-NatalyaBond-1400x934.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/cola-orange-mix-glass-c-shutterstock-NatalyaBond.jpg 1750w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">NatalyaBond \/ shutterstock<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Drecksack<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, now it&#8217;s getting tricky. We advise you to make sure you use a friendly tone when ordering. Because if the name of the drink and an insult (\u201cScumbag\u201d) are the same, trouble could sometimes be pre-programmed. But that&#8217;s not the only reason it&#8217;s tricky, because the beer-coke mix has quite a few names and few of them sound tasty. Depending on the region, the mix is called \u201cDiesel\u201d, \u201cKalter Kaffee\u201d (cold coffee), \u201cMoorwasser\u201d (moor water), \u201cSchussbier\u201d (shot beer) or \u201cDreckiges Bier\u201d (dirty beer). We suspect that this also has to do with the color of the drink. It gets better in <strong>Saarland<\/strong>. Because with \u201cGespritztes\u201d (spritzer), the mix almost sounds refreshing. In <strong>Cologne<\/strong>, a glass of \u201cK\u00f6lsch Cola\u201d is very popular. Rumor has it that in some places it is even perceived as a non-alcoholic version of Cologne&#8217;s favorite drink. We&#8217;ll leave it at that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/mix-cola-orange-bubbles-c-shutterstock-banjongseal.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/mix-cola-orange-bubbles-c-shutterstock-banjongseal-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Close-up of a bubbling liquid, orange-brown at the bottom, turning transparent towards the top\" class=\"wp-image-17102\" srcset=\"https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/mix-cola-orange-bubbles-c-shutterstock-banjongseal-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/mix-cola-orange-bubbles-c-shutterstock-banjongseal-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/mix-cola-orange-bubbles-c-shutterstock-banjongseal-883x589.jpg 883w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/mix-cola-orange-bubbles-c-shutterstock-banjongseal-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/mix-cola-orange-bubbles-c-shutterstock-banjongseal-1155x770.jpg 1155w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/mix-cola-orange-bubbles-c-shutterstock-banjongseal-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/mix-cola-orange-bubbles-c-shutterstock-banjongseal-770x513.jpg 770w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/mix-cola-orange-bubbles-c-shutterstock-banjongseal-293x195.jpg 293w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/mix-cola-orange-bubbles-c-shutterstock-banjongseal-1400x934.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/mix-cola-orange-bubbles-c-shutterstock-banjongseal.jpg 1750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/mix-cola-orange-bubbles-c-shutterstock-banjongseal-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Close-up of a bubbling liquid, orange-brown at the bottom, turning transparent towards the top\" class=\"wp-image-17102\" srcset=\"https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/mix-cola-orange-bubbles-c-shutterstock-banjongseal-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/mix-cola-orange-bubbles-c-shutterstock-banjongseal-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/mix-cola-orange-bubbles-c-shutterstock-banjongseal-883x589.jpg 883w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/mix-cola-orange-bubbles-c-shutterstock-banjongseal-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/mix-cola-orange-bubbles-c-shutterstock-banjongseal-1155x770.jpg 1155w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/mix-cola-orange-bubbles-c-shutterstock-banjongseal-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/mix-cola-orange-bubbles-c-shutterstock-banjongseal-770x513.jpg 770w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/mix-cola-orange-bubbles-c-shutterstock-banjongseal-293x195.jpg 293w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/mix-cola-orange-bubbles-c-shutterstock-banjongseal-1400x934.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/funkygermany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/mix-cola-orange-bubbles-c-shutterstock-banjongseal.jpg 1750w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">banjongseal324SS \/ shutterstock<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Berliner Wei\u00dfe mit Schuss<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Bavaria <\/strong>is generally perceived as the most famous beer region in Germany, but the capital city <strong>Berlin <\/strong>is also fond of the hoppy drink. And has been since the 16th century. The top-fermented wheat beer from Berlin had disappeared from the scene for a few years. For a long time, it was only mixed with caraway schnapps or corn schnapps, but in the 1980s it came in a green guise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Green? Yes, because refined with woodruff syrup, served in the typical bulbous glass with a short stem, beer garden guests enjoyed the \u201cBerliner Wei\u00dfe mit Schuss\u201d. Alternatively, with raspberry syrup. We note: color is everything when it comes to German mixed drinks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Kalte Ente<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We admit that we had never heard of the name before our research. And we&#8217;re not yet sure whether this drink will make it to the next editorial party.

In the 1990s, it was sometimes considered a cultured drink for getting drunk quickly in teenage circles. That&#8217;s the rumor. We&#8217;re talking about red wine with cola. Just the thought of it may almost massage disgust into the facial features of the passionate red wine drinker. Here, too, there are regional designations that are not immediately apparent. \u201cKalte Muschi\u201d, for example, or dirty ox blood.
