Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 What is/are your nonalcoholic drink(s) of choice? Coffee, tea, soda, cola, water? Are there specific times when you prefer one over another? Me? Coffee black, no sugar. Coke Zero. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smokin Gator SASS #29736 Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 I like to make a big drink with cold lime essence club soda, lemon juice and a squirt of stevia. Kind of a lemon lime soda. Or regular icewater with the lemon stevia. Also Iced coffee with a little milk or cream. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stump Water Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 Two cups of coffee w/sugar in the morning. Water. That's all that's in the house. On the off chance that have something else when out it'll be half-n-half iced tea or Pepsi. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Riot Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 Coffee, black, in the morning. Ice water, every day, all day, 3-4 or more quarts daily. About once a week I will have a Mountain Dew or a Pepsi. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dantankerous Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 (edited) In no particular order... Coffee, black. Anything else in coffee (besides Jamison) ruins coffee. Whole milk, cold. Edited March 24 by Dantankerous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt. C.J. Sabre, SASS #46770 Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 Iced tea "sweetened" with Stevia. Look up aspartame some time. You'll never want anything with that stuff in it, (diet soda, Sweet & Low, ANYTHING artificially sweetened,) again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They made me feel ill. I thought it was the heat and humidity. It turned out to be the aspartame in the powder. Never again! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackwater 53393 Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 Iced tea, sweetened with cane sugar or honey. As a treat, now and then, a drop of raspberry or blackberry added. I treat myself to a regular Coca Cola once in a while and occasionally a ginger ale. I have had three separate dietitians tell me that the body handles cane sugar or honey far better than corn syrup as far as natural sweeteners go, so I try to avoid corn syrup. I don’t use much of any sweetener for anything else but beverages and I avoid artificial sweeteners religiously. I liked stevia, but it is difficult to get accurate measurements with the different brands. I absolutely WILL NOT eat or drink ANYTHING that contains aspartame, sodium cyclamate, or saccharine! All of these have been proven to be carcinogenic!! Why take chances??? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loophole LaRue, SASS #51438 Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 After years of guzzling Diet Cokes to the tune of 6-8 per day, I gave it up cold turkey. I don't drink coffee or tea. Water became my prime beverage, but got boring fast. I use Sunkist drink powders (yes, they contain aspartame, but you've got to die from something eventually). The flavor is great, and they are very convenient. LL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't disagree with that. Like Loophole stated, gotta die from something. At least it won't be sugar or aspartame! Well maybe not anyway.

Lone Spur Jake SASS #7728 Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 Southern Comfort. It was prescribed for me by my cardiologist after my quadruple bypass as one the best medicines to keep my arteries clean. Alcohol works great on cleaning stuff!!!!!!
