Coffee, Tea & Other Non-Alcholic Drinks


There's a wonderful world of beverages out there that don't involve alcohol. Here's the place to tell us about your favourite waker-upper in the morning or thirst-quencher on a hot summer day.

Recipes, as always, are welcome.

For me it's pretty darn simple:

Tetley tea, with a semi-teaspoon of honey and skim milk.


aaaaaaaaaah!

Re: Coffee, Tea & Other Non-Alcholic Drinks


I'm a huge coffee drinker, but truthfully can't really tell the difference between brands. I'm sure there are those who gasp at the thought.

I've recently been introduced to nummy iced coffees, as well, and really like the vanilla flavored, sweetened with Splenda, of course.

Green tea is consumed pretty regularly; not that I like the stuff, but hear it's very good for you, so I try to add it to my daily routine.

Cindy, you were worried about Kitty, now I'm worried about you! Please, please, please don't drink Splenda - it's very dangerous. Stevia is considered the safest sweetener - Splenda the most toxic:

Dr. Mercola on Splenda


There's tons of other info out there about the dangers of Splenda. Just Google it.

Oh, you're right. I do have my supply of Truvia which I use regularly. Unfortunately, the coffee shops don't offer it and I understand Splenda is a better alternative to the others.

What's "Truvia"? Do you mean Stevia?

Splenda is poison. Look into Stevia. I carry it with me when I'm out and stopping at coffee shops, etc.

I can't stand any artificial sweetener. I've never been able to take more than one sip of a diet soft drink.

I stick with sugar - the devil I know.

Yup. All the artificial sweeteners are far worse than the sugar they're supposedly saving you from.

I eschew sugar altogether in my morning beverage, I lurvs my all natural honey.

Yeah, I use honey in my tea for a sweetener and take my coffee with just milk.

No, I mean Truvia - it's the brand name of a Stevia product

Truvia
