Do you have the impression that alcohol consumption that was pretty normalized a few years back on every social occasion is getting questioned lately? What do you think about it?

Yes it’s definitely healthier. But now that you mention Schnaps…
Sometimes, just sometimes I feel a little sad about traditions getting lost. Where I’m from it has something of “taking care of guests”, that you hardly can replace without alcohol.
For example “Christbaumloben”, a tradition we practiced. It means going from house to house at Christmas, telling people that their tree looks nice and getting Schnaps. It’s just a nice way of connecting to people you often don’t see anymore, maybe because you moved away from home or so. Impossible when nobody’s drinking.
We need new traditions that don’t require drinking.
This is adorable.
I think it could be replaced with cookies and non alcoholic hot apple cider, but it might not be as sociable without everyone being a bit tipsy.
