Of the non-alcoholic variety that is. What do you drink during these humid sweaty days? Just water?

I'm drinking a lot of iced coffee and iced tea. Which is not good, basically mainlining the sugar, and caffeine, but oh, shiiiiiiiwonhada...

"non-alcoholic" ??? Shocked

Are you sure you're an English teacher Corporal? You do know that it's in the ESL teacher's handbook that you have to be heavy drinker.



Sarcasm aside I am a serious tea drinker. Got me over a dozen different kinds of tea for different moods and different seasons. British Sassafras tea; almost makes up for the Spice Girls.

Power Aid while in the vicinity of kids.

Beer when I'm not.

Or tonight, a bottle of J.P.Chennet Cabernet Syrah. Nice wine. 8,500 in Wal Mart. 15,000 in a wine store.

Pimms and lemonade too. Wonderful drink in the summer.

Saturday? Champagne. Celebrating being married legally. Wonderful drink all year.

Only way to drink tea baby. Just cold enough that you can drink it with out burning your tongue.

Maybe I've been in Asia too long, but I like to drink hot water in hot weather like the Chinese. (plus that way you know that water is safe; the heat kills all the little buggies).

Never have gotten used to the strange western tradition of putting ice in drinks. Just seems all wrong to me somehow.

Amino Up is my daylight drink of choice.

That or cool, refreshing, nutritious milk (ESL brand of course. I can't believe they make milk especially for foreign teachers!!!!)

I like the grape juice with the little bits of grape in it. Coco I think it's called. Pretty good on a hot summer's day.
