The Czech Republic is known for its beer. But, that doesn't really work for me. Fortunately the Coke in Europe is very good--if you can find it cold--I think its made with sugar instead of corn syrup. And the tap water was really tasty, but almost impossible to find. No drinking fountains. It's not served in restaurants even when you ask for it. So I was thirsty for about half of the trip.
At one point, Jason and I stepped inside a small corner store up the street from our hotel to find a Coke and maybe some fruit for lunch, when we discovered a real specialty. Unfortunately I only had about 25 crowns and this potent* little beverage cost more than 40. I'm still wondering what it tastes like. Though in hind sight, I'm not sure this is the stuff you should drink when one is traveling sans-spouse for almost two weeks.
More on the trip later.
*This is an assumption based on packaging cues, which also indicate this drink does something funky to your neck and makes your hair stand on end.
