Members MsGuy Posted January 24, 2014 Members Share Posted January 24, 2014 OK, Pepsi states that, at least in California, it's products won't give you cancer (anyway not any more). Never would have, says they, as long as you didn't drink more than 4 ounces a day. Guess they put the stuff in 12 oz. cans for convenience in sharing. http://www.latimes.com/food/dailydish/la-dd-pepsi-one-carcinogen-soda-20140123,0,2293838.story#axzz2rHtIZyUg Hell, I drink Coke so what do I care?

Guest hitoallusa Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 I stay away from soft drinks. I drink tea instead. MsGuy you should try tea. I chat with ladies at work during my tea break. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MsGuy Posted January 24, 2014 Author Members Share Posted January 24, 2014 Hot tea or iced tea? If hot, is there a generally available brand you would recommend? Something from a tea specialty shop ain't gonna do me much good around here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ihpguy Posted January 24, 2014 Members Share Posted January 24, 2014 Chamomile at night. Maybe mint, apple and/or strawberry tea might catch your fancy. Doctor OZ swears that white tea is super. Green tea is good but not as good. Add some finely sliced/diced fresh ginger and some sliced oranges, cherries. If you have any berries, add them to the glass with ice for a cold beverage. Sweeten with honey or agave or raw sugar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RA1 Posted January 24, 2014 Members Share Posted January 24, 2014 I found that the tea that I enjoyed in England and NZ was most closely approximated by buying the cheapest, generic brand from Kroger or the like. When I had house guests from those places, they were quite happy with that, although they did insist on using "real" sugar and "real" cream, neither of which do I "stock". For some reason, after flying non-stop for 12 or so hours, a nice cuppa was very soothing. Best regards, RA1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamSmith Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 I favor "cold tea," which is how certain restaurants in Boston's Chinatown refer to beer served after-hours in a teapot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RA1 Posted January 24, 2014 Members Share Posted January 24, 2014 Then there is Long Island tea and the Tea Party. All in all, I prefer the cold tea that you describe. Best regards, RA1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
