BNL Chatter / Archives / Get your drink on...

What do you drink at work or at home on a daily basis?  Try anything new lately you'd like to share?

I just came out of a nasty virus and have no desire for a diet soda. Good thing.

But I should be drinking more than just plain water…..

Any suggestions?

Carrot juice! Yum. Haven't had it in years, though…

glory Apr 16th 4:05 pm

Sorry David, I have no suggestions.

I used to drink water all the time and only water. Then I started working here and needed the bubbles that come in pop. LOL

Darlene Apr 16th 5:23 pm

Fuze?

Vitamin water?

Sean Apr 16th 5:48 pm

Yoohoo.

MiT Apr 16th 11:50 pm

orange smoothie.

ROCKS coming off a cold.

If you have a Jamba Juice nearby, I recommend their Coldbuster!  It has all the good stuff for helping your cold.

I drink a lot of water every day and it's become the major beverage for me, but I also drink a lot of tea.

if you're getting over something, or something's just started, then herbal teas should be good.

Camomile - it's really an acquired taste for some people, but I love it. it's good for stomach troubles and other ailments.

Mint - I think also good for stomach things and it's just generally a great tea.

a teaspoon of honey in my tea goes a long way towards making me feel better when I'm feeling icky because of something. and of course there are a lot of fruit teas and just anything. there are dozens of flavours.

Diet Coke is a huge vice.

Been trying to get away from the pop so I've been drinking a lot of water with those Crystal Light singles.

Canada Dry Green Tea Ginger Ale is also amazing.

Booze-wise I'm still on the gin & tonic train. Sometimes will have a half beer, half coke.

d Apr 17th 3:04 am

Wait, Dean-- you mean you MIX the beer and coke?

bnldavid Apr 17th 7:42 am

I hope we mis-read that….a beer/coke combo?

Jamba Juice?  In Sheboygan?

Fuze….I have tried some of their diet drinks, I think the fruit punch tasted awful.

Thanks for the suggestions…right now its water, flavored water and diet nestea mixed berry.

Still havent had a diet soda….almost a week.

I love that Vitiman Water… The XXX is one of my favorites.

I drink A LOT of water.  Maybe three or four liters a day.  I just love water.

I've also got a vice for for the Rock Star Punch, that's some good stuff…that and that Nos, both are very tasty.  But one Nos and I'm zooming for almost the whole day.

I love the Monster Java energy drink.  Rock Star also has a coffee energy drink in a light form, which is good for my disease, but not quite as good-tasting.  Those Aquafina lite flavored waters are very yummy, but I tend to just like plain ol' AM PM crushed ice water.

Mac Apr 17th 10:32 am

I usually drink water with lemon at home.  Mainly that's because I ran out of tea bags and haven't been able to make iced tea for a week.

At work, I tend to have a Dr. Pepper in the morning (though I'm trying to break that habit) and in the afternoon I'll usually stop and get a Vitamin Water.  I like the Dragonfruit one.  I also really like the flavoured white and green teas made by Snapple, I think.

Dean Apr 17th 11:04 am

Yes I do mean that I mix beer with Coke. It's something I picked up when I was in Germany a couple years ago.

I know it sounds absolutely gross but it's actually quite good. Most people react the way you guys did when they hear it but are pleasantly surprised when I let them try it.

d Apr 17th 2:40 pm

So, it's a pleasant tasting surprise-- like grapes and Cheez-its. Mmm, now there's a combo.

Dean - I've had a Shandy before, but that's a light beer with Sprite. never heard of it with Coke…

sprung Apr 18th 2:11 pm

I like the cherry blossom green tea too… made by Nestea I think.

C-pher Apr 18th 5:24 pm

I drove by Micky D's and they had a HUGE sign for tea for a dollar.

I stopped and got one…HOLY CRAP!  It's good.

I love Iced Tea….no sugar no lemon.
