What is your nonalcoholic beverage of choice?

[NewWaveChick1981]

Mine is water. I decided to give up sodas over a year ago, and I've done just fine. I've always been a big water drinker, but now that's pretty much all I drink except for occasional coffee, skim milk, and tomato juice. That's not to say I won't ever drink anything else, but that's just me. I've always been a big water drinker, so this wasn't a major leap for me. However, staying away from sodas has been major!

I drink the equivalent of six to seven half-liter bottles of water a day. :)

9. Inko's iced white tea

I gave up soda too, and while I'm a big fan of water, when I want something with flavor I go for the Inko's because it's got next to no calories even though it's sweetened with regular sugar (not high fructose corn syrup). Best of all possible worlds! Mmmm...blueberry iced tea...

[NewWaveChick1981]

13. That sounds very tasty...

:hi:

[MorningGlow]

23. What can I say? I'm a ho for Inko's

Check out these numbers--56 calories, 14g of carbs in the whole bottle--about the same for all the flavors (peach, plain, honeydew, apricot, etc...)--a LOT better than soda. :hi:

10. Coffee

All day, every day. I'm nocturnal by nature but necessity forces me to function during the day, so I compensate with coffee. I tend to measure my consumption by the pot, usually about three a day.

I need to drink more water. But...coffee's made with water, isn't it?

[NewWaveChick1981]

14. LOL! You sound like my dad...

You never, ever see my dad without a coffee cup in his hand. :P I drink a maximum of one cup of coffee per day---I only started drinking it about eight years ago, and I don't drink it often. But you do the coffee think like I do water---I almost always have a glass or bottle of water in front of me. Helps me get through the day.

[Kajsa]

27. Reyd Reid Reed,try to drink more water

on top of that.

I love good coffee too, but it does dehydrate you.

As a friend once said " You don't buy coffee, you rent it."

[Patiod]

25. V-8

and water. Stopped drinking soda a while back, and now that I know about high fructose corn syrup, that's pretty much put most commercial ice teas and lemonades off the list as well.

[NewWaveChick1981]

42. I was drinking diet sodas, but I really wanted to get rid of artificial

sweeteners, so I went cold turkey. I haven't regretted it! :) I also eliminated high-fructose corn syrup and trans fats, so I'm paying better attention to my health. :D

[querelle]

26. Iced Tea In The Summer

Hot decaf tea in the colder months. I drink 6 to 8 large glasses of (filtered) water everyday, but I don't particularly enjoy it. I just do it because it's supposed to be good for me. Kinda like brussel sprouts.

Q

[NewWaveChick1981]

43. LOL! I learned to eat Brussels sprouts too...

:P My husband's an iced tea junkie, and I can't believe I got him to wean off the sweet tea. He drinks it unsweetened or with stevia now. :woohoo:

He loves Mountain Dew, Mello Yello, and Sundrop (a regional brand). :) I don't care for it myself, but he thinks it's the greatest!

[Broken_Hero]

50. I'm a big fan of citrus drinks

Mt. Dew, Squirt, Lemonade drinks...Fuzzy Navels...:) Just about anything, from citrus is great...:) My favorite mixed drink, surprise, surprise, is the Screwdriver...:)

35. diet coke or gatorade, depending

Can't drink too much plain water- messes with my electrolyte balance and I get sick as a dog.

Pop is mostly for special occasions. No need to drink my calories, on a regular basis!

[LSK]

37. water, chocalate milk, fruit juices

Big Train brand of Spiced Chai is the best by far!

Chocolate milk or Cream Soda. Once in a blue moon, either one of them hits a spot I didn'y know I had...

[raccoon]

Can't live without it.

[TheFriendlyAnarchist]

41. Hell, I guess water, tea, coffee, juice, milk, soda

[azmouse]

47. Unsweetened iced tea or plain water

I can't stand soda. Nasty stuff.

61. By volume water, by enjoyment coffee.

with an honourable mention to green-tea.

I drink some very strong black coffee first thing, and again at lunch (slightly weaker). I drink water all day, if I don't I dehydrate very easily. I drink a fair quantity of green-tea as well.

[brentspeak]

62. Green iced tea
