The drink. A cheerful moment at the end of the day, around four o'clock, which is often accompanied
with an alcoholic snack. In Spain, large Aperol Spritz glasses and terracotta bowls
with olives, chorizo, sardines and patatas bravas adorn the table. In France, a glass of red or white wine
is paired with a delicious piece of cheese and of course some baguette. In Sweden they often go for crispbread
with cream and salmon or an egg with Kalles Kaviar. In Belgium they often take a
shrimp croquette in addition to a beer. And in the low countries the bitterbal and the block of old cheese are invariably favorites. Never
change a winning team and some traditional combinations are gold, but we can shake up the Dutch
drinking board a bit. It's time for Drinks 2.0 – familiar, tasty and cosy,
but just a little bit different. Meet the 'Rainbow', 'Mexican Fiesta' and 'Low-carb' boards. Which plank are you serving soon? Share your culinary creations with us via @stegeman_nl
