Signification
Consuming a soft drink
Contexte culturel
The 'coffee culture' is huge, but 'piti sok' is the standard alternative. You can sit for hours with one juice. Homemade syrups (sirup na razrjeđivanje) are a staple of hospitality in rural areas. Young people often mix juices with mineral water to create a 'sok s mjehurićima' or 'špricer' (though špricer is usually wine and water). In big cities like Zagreb, 'smoothies' are becoming popular, but they are still often called 'gusti sok' (thick juice).
Ordering like a local
If you want a specific brand, just say the brand name + 'molim'. For example, 'Jednu Colu, molim'.
Sugar content
Croatian 'sokovi' can be very sweet. If you want something less sweet, ask for 'limunada' (usually freshly squeezed and unsweetened).
