There’s nothing better than meeting with friends and sipping on a few cocktails. 

Consuming the drink is no problem, but when it comes to ordering, it can sometimes be quite tricky to execute the correct pronunciation. If it’s a toughy it usually results in people pointing to the menu saying, ‘I’ll have that one’.

I always thought Hoegaarden was pronounced ‘Hoe-Garden’ but it’s actually ‘Who-gar-den’.
