So, what is your favorite non-alcoholic beverage?

Mine is a delicious invention...I found part of the idea in a cookbook, and then added to it to make a delicious treat! :)

Ingredients:

-Milk (Any kind works, but I stick with good old 2%)
- Maple Syrup
- Cinnamon

Mix in about 1 spoonful of maple syrup per 8 ounces (240 ml) of milk. Sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon on top. Mix well. Heat in microwave until lukewarm. Mix well again. Enjoy!

Pure deliciousness!!!

Your faves?

I had to vote 'other' cos I can't make a choice between tea & Evian water (yes, I am pretentious enough to specify my water preference! ;) )

Wait a minute...I's confused...are you saying you don't have any syrup or cinnamon, or that you would just prefer a glass of warm milk? :p

I like what we call "saft". It's a liquid fruit concentrate that is mixed with water. My favourite is "Guava Lemongrass".

It's sort of like liquid kool-aid or squash, but it tastes a lot better.

It depends on the modod i'm in.
but Irn-Bru and Oceon Spray Cranberry and raspberry are up there as is the pink fanta (friut burst or soemthing).

But my true fav is Diet Coke with cranberry juice added ( 2 parts cranberry to 3-4parts coke).

Limeaid/Pink lemonade are my favourite normal kinds of drinks.

Super thick extra chocolatey milkshakes would also be a favourite.

Water's definitely the best all round drink.

Otherwise, coffee, hot and cold chocolate and occassionally tea or fruit juice.

I had to vote "other", because I have so many!

Water for an all-round good drink. Then, there's soda pop, milk, chocolate milk, hot cocoa (made by me, using Hershey's Cocoa... good stuff), fruit juice, and tea.

Hahaha... That's my substitute for water. When my filters go out, and I don't have enough money to buy new ones, I just go for two 12-packs of Coke. $5.00!

Thats kinda odd that drinking coke is less expensive than clean water. Funny? Sad? Corporate America bum raping the Consumer? Meh.

All of the above.

Oh, and don't even think about asking me to drink the tap water in my town --- This stuff is so polluted that it smells almost as strong as a bottle of bleach.

Agreed.
Though I have to put my second favorite just to drive the Brits crazy.
Iced tea.



Actually, hot or cold tea, but I just love making the Brits shudder. :D

Ah, iced tea. A Southern favorite. I teel you its a good area when you can go to Bojangles and buy a box of real fried chicken, mashed potatoes that dont taste like cardboard, pinto beans, real cole slaw, and a gallon of freshly brewed sweet tea. Yum!

I live in Oklahoma now, and can still get decent southern food. It still doesn't compare to the stuff in S.C.

The idea of someone putting ice in a 'cuppa' just makes most of them go nuts. It's great fun. :p

I voted for juice, but on second thought I should have put other. My favorite drink is actually a mixture of ginger ale, orange juice, and cranberry juice.
