Tea, Coffee or Something Else

[dexterdoglancashire]

First drink of the day is a milky coffee, made for me every single day for the last 26 years by my lovely hubby. Then for rest of the day, Vimto - hot or cold.

A weak solution of lime juice and water at all times of the day!

Vimto.....................an anagram of Vomit.

You see I don't understand your mentality there, but if it worked for you, well done.
I'm not a fussy eater, but if I don't like/enjoy something, I'll just avoid it. I once considered making myself like beer (hard to feel like a real man when you have two older brothers who tease you about not liking it), but I just couldn't convince myself that it was nice.
Not sure why I'd want to start enjoying coffee, unless I was trapped in a life-or-death situation where the only way to survive was to drink coffee!

I guess constantly being made to feel like a kid asking for a cold drink when at the time I was trying to prove I was all grown up played a part!

Many tastes we have now were aquired when we were littl'ns,so is spending a week or two adjusting our taste buds in adult life that far removed from being a kid,encouraged to try new flavours?

The one I don't understand is people aquiring a taste for expensive wines...why not just carry on enjoying the one's that are kinder to the purse strings?

it has been known for me to pour boiling water on my vodka and to pour tonic over SD's teabag

I'm just having a nice hot "horlicks" made with milk, and 2 digestives...yum.

[SarzWix]

Tea, tea, tea Preferably builder's strength, with semi-skimmed milk and no sugar. Not even the trace of sugar off the spoon from stirring someone else's sugary tea - I always know

Occasionally, if I need a real kick up the bum in a morning, I have hot chocolate with half a teaspoon of coffee mixed in, works a treat

Other than that, I drink Sprite/lemonade when out, and rarely touch alcomofrol.

Oh, oh, you just reminded me: I ran out of milk once and had a black coffee topped with Coke. Was nice

I have to agree this is very nice SarzWix, I don't have a lot of these or I'd be buzzing all day

I usually have a milky coffee with one sugar in the morning. I get heartburn at night if I have two. It's nice with a bit of Baileys on the weekend.

Usually the afternoon drink is Twining's morning blend, white, no sugar. Sometimes we switch to clipper for a change. Or Lapsang Souchong.

When I'm being an angel, I drink green or white tea, cherry and cinnamon, strawberry and mango, blackcurrant vanilla and ginseng, or just plain filtered water.
