Global InformationVaskning information
Vaskning (lit. 'Sinking') is the act of pouring out champagne in the sink. Sinking probably started in Sweden as "a reaction to the ban on spraying champagne in many bars" and the sinking is usually done by a person ordering two bottles of champagne and asking the bartender to pour out (sink) one of them.[1] The term "sinking" is a translation of the Swedish term, "vaskning," derived from "vask," which means "sink".[2]
