We all love our TEA

Glass of 56 Hundred Shiraz. I'm sure another will follow shortly.

Re: The what are you drinking now thread

Lol, just told hubby that you were being unfaithful to Dr Pepper and he refuses to believe me - claims that I put you up to it and must have bribed you or something.

I think he feels like you are cheating or being unfaithful or something.

He has issues, lol.

Re: The what are you drinking now thread

Glass of peach tea with ice.

Re: The what are you drinking now thread

White rum and diet cola ( :angel: ). Ice and a slice.

Re: The what are you drinking now thread

A cold bottle of Moretti to round off a hot day. Now brewed in the UK - load of crap, avoid.

Re: The what are you drinking now thread

Why only a beer though? From what I remember of British ex pats (in Cyprus), the one thing they hated is being the stereotypical Brits, drinking beer / eating curry etc overseas.

I went to my daughter's new school's fair to buy her uniform (starts in September) and I tried a glass of Pimms with prosecco...

Pass. Do not recommend / did not taste like something worth carrying on with.

Will try some Absolut Elyx later - first time for me.

Re: The what are you drinking now thread

A pint of Bo66y. Got a 5l keg from morrisons for a tenner a few weeks ago.

Not a bad golden ale

I tried cold Tea once when I was I the USA it was awful ;)

Re: The what are you drinking now thread

I'm now drinking peach iced tea but I also drink iced cappuccino which nobody else seems to like at all which is fab as it's more for me :D

@ nash I also have had iced tea while abroad and tbh it was not nice. The tea's that den has posted are very nice especially the peach one but it does need to be chilled IMO.

Re: The what are you drinking now thread

Just about to go to the local for an ice-cold pint of Stella in the beer garden under a shade. :beer:

Americans tend to drink that a lot - I used to hate it and then I started trying them with tea the way that we drink it.

They would retort it with "y'all warm up your tea?" then ask every question that thy could, with one word. (I.e. how / where / why / when) etc etc. They still got it wrong so I gave up and let them continue to defile the drink.

Water is actually far better in hot weather or a nice cup of tea you will find is far better then alcohol.

I bought some Lipton Iced tea with Lemon, only to get home to dicover it has Sorbitol which has Laxative effects if you take too much.

I'm fed up of iced water, coke.

I beliive it should be banned from putting this muck (sweeteners ending in "TOL" & "OL" in foodstuff.

Just google "Sugar free gummi bears" and read the hooror stories.

Re: The what are you drinking now thread

Drinking a large mug of strong tea.

They warn of the laxative effects yes. However you'd have to drink litres of the stuff in one go for anything to happen. Drinking a glass or small bottle shouldn't cause any harm.

Re: The what are you drinking now thread

Hardy's VR Chardonnay.

Re: The what are you drinking now thread

A nice glass of fresh orange juice

. . . well probably fresh when it went into the Tesco carton, but it's the thought that counts ;)

Re: The what are you drinking now thread

I find unless you go for the premium OJ it all has that tinned soup background of over pasteurisation.

Re: The what are you drinking now thread

A bottle of "5 a.m. Saint"

Im drinking brown milk :) (Yes - Chocolate <<>> Organic Whole)

Re: The what are you drinking now thread

I can empathize with you in that respect Den, having cracked a bone in my spine last August (T12) and still suffering despite painkillers. :( Hope you have a peaceful night before CT scan my friend.

Do you drink anything else?

Hehe sometimes mate :)

I like cranberry/grape juice. Its good (Organic)

Do you like that?

Re: The what are you drinking now thread

I like cranberry juice but for the most part prefer my grape juice either eating grapes or fermented. Grape juice I find just tastes odd.

Re: The what are you drinking now thread

Glass of Carménère - 2016 Valle de Colchagua

Re: The what are you drinking now thread

Just been out to a gin tasting at a local restaurant - it was Manchester Gin (brave in Leeds).

We tried the Signature in a spritzer, which was very refreshing, then Wild Spirit with Fever Tree tonic, Raspberry Infusion with Fever Tree Elderberry Tonic, and Overboard (Navy Strength 57.3%) with Fever Tree Tonic (having tried them all on their own first as a "sipping" drink.

Bought a bottle of the Wild Spirit to take home, to keep our other 6 bottles of Gin company.

Very nice indeed - should sleep well tonight... :D

Re: The what are you drinking now thread

I don't even know how to put this into words, so here is a picture:

Attachment 27506

Back story: Friend comes over and brings me Jolly Ranchers. (Much easier to get overseas).

Hubby buys in 10K bottle of vodka, starts floating JR's in the vodka.

They melt, he adds sugar and honey and mangles it even more.

Presents me with it, I mangle him.

Moral of the story, anyone?

(That's what I tried a sip of, last night).

Im drinking some Milk :)

Re: The what are you drinking now thread

Actimel blueberry flavour.
