WHERE SELTZER IS KING We want you to name a landlocked country in central Europe. This country shares borders with 7 neighbors. In compass order they are Slovakia, Romania, Ukraine, Croatia, Serbia, Slovenia, and Austria. It has no beachfront property on the Mediterranean. But the country's got the largest fresh water lake in central Europe. Lake Balaton. And there's plenty of mineral water too from all the hot springs scattered around the country. Bubbly water's on the menu in just about every café and restaurant. The fizzy stuff caught on here back in the 1800s. Ever since, the local version of a wine spritzer called a fröccs has been popular. This drink is cheap too!...it only costs a few hundred forint. So can you name the country where seltzer is king?
