Clarification request(s) and response

MSH (asker): 4:33pm Mar 4, 2005: Yes - It's Austrian
MSH (asker): 4:33pm Mar 4, 2005: More context - Example of ingredients: blackcurrant juice, sugar, blackcurrant juice concentrate, acidifying agent: citric acid, carbon dioxide, vitamin C.

sparkling
Explanation:
Slightly more ad-speak - depends whether it's part of the list of ingredients or the actual title of the drink - which case Sparkling blackcurrant maybe sounds better, otherwise I'd go with Jeff's carbonated

agree babbleon: sounds a tad more upmarket than fizzy, which could sound rather on the gassy side

agree Nick Somers: The Austrian faction agrees. Course, if you go to a Heurige and ask for weiss g'spritzt you'll get something a little more alcoholic

  -> Thanks Nick - the alcoholic version is beginning to sound very tempting after a long day at the keyboard...
