RHINE WINE AND SELTERS.
(Use a large wine glass.)
The bartender's attention is called to the fact that
when a customer calls for Rhine wine and selters
water, he desires a larger portion of wine than of
selters, and, if he should call for selters and wine, he
desires more selters than wine; it is understood, in
serving wine and selters, the imported selters must
be used, the artificial selters will spoil the wine and
destroy its flavor; attention must be paid that both
the wine and the selters are continually kept on ice.
This is a favorite drink with German people and
preferred by them in many cases to lemonade.
