In Search Of The Favorite Beverage

[editec]

editec, have you been on the thread that tells how much sugar is in soda and fruit juice yet?

I'm not especially worried about my weight so sugar isn't a problem I worry too much about.

I generally prefer juice because it quenches my thirst.

One of things I notice about soda is the more you drink it, the more soda you want to drink.

It is, I suspect, the root cause of overweight America.

It is, I suspect, the root cause of overweight America.

And not eating healthy, not exercising and being lazy too!

Don't even get me started on our overweight youth.........

You know what's tasty on a hot day like this?

Or anytime?


Take some vodka, put over ice. Add soda water. Squeeze in about 1/4 to 1/2 of a fresh lemon. Stir. Drink.


Man, I love those things. I call them VSL2.

*vodka soda double lemon*

I don't like vodka but it does sound tasty. Can I substitute light rum instead?

If I had some in the house, I'd have a glass of champagne or frizzante right now.

Have a good evening!

I like my vodka with Diet Coke. Preferably the vodka is vanilla-flavored.

When I go camping with my friends, I like to play chemist. The guys always bring lots of whiskey and stuff, and it never occurs to them that women are less likely to want to drink straight whiskey, so I mix up some little concoction that tastes likes fruit juice and Kool-Aid, but is lethally alcoholic. God bless flavored vodka.

Diet Coke is my poison.

All over it. My family goes into red-alert mode when I run out of Diet Coke, 'cause it's not safe to be around me at that point.

Fresca. Nobody else likes it but me which means I never have to worry about anyone stealing my drink!

Fresca. I haven't had that since the 70's. Can you get that in a restaurant?

I don't know about that. I'd say it's doubtful. You can get it at grocery stores or Wal-Mart. I sometimes go to Mexican grocery stores and get it with real sugar.

Yeah, but it depends on what kind of fruit juice. I avoid stuff augmented with corn syrup.

That's the sugar that's really killing Americans, you know. They're putting it in everything.

I do love V8.

Me too.

(Add some Stoli and a dash of hot sauce to the V8 and you have yourself a fun little drink! }

I can make a wicked bloody Mary.

I don't really like them, but when I was tending bar my customers seemed to think they were pretty special.

 

[strollingbones]

v8 has a ton of salt in it....lol but a wicked bloody mary would be good about now or a mirmosa...

I resent the heck out of the fact that when the price of corn goes up, so does the price of my Diet Coke. No corn syrup in my soda, but Coke spreads the price hikes over all their products so that they don't have to raise the prices too high on the stuff that does use it.

I never saw the point of artificially sweetened fruit juice. It's FRUIT, for crying out loud. It's already sweet!

You should try brewing your own beer. Mine is like rocket fuel with a head.

I love Diet Coke, I practically live on it. I probably spend more on it than any other food item.
