Yup, that is an odd one that I also noticed. It is so weird that on first viewing I didn’t even really get that they were going for a joke!
The idea that sparkling water here is generally preferred, much less the default option provided without a still alternative, is bizarre. Your comment suggests that, again, it is more of a continental thing, but isn’t true for the UK…
I’m pretty boring when it comes to tea- English breakfast tea is standard, perhaps the odd Earl Grey (milk or no milk with EG, folks?).
Herbal teas can be okay. Often, however, I find the smell fruity and delicious- only for the tea to taste like slightly rank water.
