Alcohol-free refreshment for the summer
Genmaicha Kombucha
To mark the World Cup, Moritz from Restaurant Storstad presents a refreshing non-alcoholic alternative to the usual drinks enjoyed whilst watching football together.
The star of the show is a Genmaicha kombucha, made from roasted rice and green tea from Japan. The combination of subtle roasted notes, delicate sweetness and lively freshness makes it the ideal drink for warm summer days.
The kombucha is served in the aroma glass from the non-alcoholic Début glass series by Zwiesel Glas. Developed specifically for non-alcoholic drinks, the series allows the flavours to develop to their full potential and ensures a truly special drinking experience.
A modern, non-alcoholic alternative – refreshing, versatile and perfect for social occasions.

From the Kitchen of Anton Schmaus
Asparagus in Three Variations
Asparagus has always been one of Anton Schmaus' personal favorites. The versatile vegetable is also a regular feature in the kitchen of the German national football team. There is one interesting detail, however: due to its natural dehydrating properties, asparagus is typically served after a match rather than before.
In this recipe, Anton Schmaus presents three different ways to prepare asparagus, showcasing its versatility:
- Boiled asparagus with tomato, egg, parsley and tarragon vinaigrette
- Crispy breaded asparagus with Bozner sauce
- Grilled asparagus with Hollandaise sauce
Recipe Card
Ingredients for the Asparagus
- 1 kg white asparagus
- Asparagus peels and trimmings
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 tsp sugar
- Salt
Preparing the Asparagus
Simmer the asparagus peels and trimmings in water for approximately 30 minutes to create a flavorful asparagus stock. Remove the peels and trimmings. Add butter, salt and a pinch of sugar to the stock. Cook the peeled asparagus until tender while retaining a slight bite.

- 2 tomatoes
- 2 hard-boiled eggs
- 1 tbsp parsley, finely chopped
