I don't believe in stereotypes so I tried unicum in Slovakia and tatratea in Hungary

And yes unicum is a Hungarian liquer, not something "else". And tatratea is a tea based drink with 70% alcohol from Slovakia.

The blasphemy! 😤
Also, one can't truly appreciate tatratea if they don't identify the unique taste of that special socialist flavour added to watery oversweetened tea that used to be ladled from big metal pots in school canteens where ignoring the aftertaste of a stale rag that was the pot wiped with earlier was nearly impossible. 😁

@CrazyMusicLover that's an experience I should acquire some time!

@HannibalAteMeOut I wonder if kids today actually experienced that or it's just 90s/early 2000s thing. But I was so surprised when I learned that that flavour is an inherent ingredient in tatratea. And it was only about three years ago. 😅 Not the rag flavour, the flavour of the "tea", of course. Older folks actually remember a product that was sold in Czechoslovakia or maybe even in early 90s that I think was a concentrate on its own and was added to tea or other drinks but I forgot the name.
