Pas que je me souvienne… On a peut-être pris un pastis ensemble une fois ou deux… Delphine – Le corps est dans les toilettes, Commissaire.

Not that I can remember… We might have had a pastis together once or twice…

Hi Wendy, the pastis is a very popular apperitif with a yellow colour. You add water in your glass before drinking. The taste is unusual: a mix of anissed and liquorice (anis + réglisse).
I'm not sure it's still so popular now.

Hello France, 'pastis' is new to me - maybe because I hardly ever drink alcohol! I had to look the word up. I assume we are talking about an 'aperitif' here?
Because it is possibly unknown to many English readers, could one perhaps put 'aperitif' in brackets : (apperitif), so that it is clear what is being referred to?
