What drink really quenches your thirst?

I'm so thirsty tonight, had roast gammon/ham for dinner, which was lovely but now I'm thirsty and I have nothing nice to drink. I'm really craving ice cold cloudy lemonade, or lemon Fanta (full sugar one though, none of that zero stuff).

What would you choose?

Mango, Tropical, or Orange Lemon & Pineapple dilute juice with Sparkling Water. I love a Pepsi Max especially cherry flavour but will only have that very occasionally as I know I'd get addicted to it, nearly went down that road before

Sparkling water with lime cordial and plenty of ice.

Harmarsuperstar · 17/01/2021 20:35

San pellegrino fizzy water, or filtered tap water, or black tea would do the job

TweeterandtheMonkeyman · 17/01/2021 20:35

Fizzy water - served tepid !

chesterfuckingdraws · 17/01/2021 20:35

Freezing cold full sugar Fanta straight out the can.

DenisetheMenace · 17/01/2021 20:35

Tea or gin and tonic 😁

HorseOfPhillipMoss · 17/01/2021 20:36

Nothing fizzy, and it has to be really cold, water first then probably cordial/squash

wellthatsunusual · 17/01/2021 20:38

Water or fizzy water. Nothing else works for me. Sweet drinks turn my stomach.

cosmopolitanplease · 17/01/2021 20:38

Same as you op, also a glass of ice cold ribena (the old full sugar one).

Flat coke is also surprisingly good when you wake up with a thirst, I've found.

latheritup · 17/01/2021 20:39

Semi-skimmed milk, but it has to be the filtered one Grin

AldiAisleofCrap · 17/01/2021 20:40

Coke

DrinkRefilled · 17/01/2021 20:40

Water at any temperature

Definitely not fizzy drinks they’ll make me feel burpy

Lime and soda. I wouldn't say no if you put some vodka in it.

PawPawNoodle · 17/01/2021 20:42

I had a glass bottle of orange Fanta today and it was perfect 🤌

Other than, just plain ol' water

MintyCedric · 17/01/2021 20:42

I love 'breakfast juice' - half orange, half grapefruit.

LubaLuca · 17/01/2021 20:42

Weak lemon squash with tap water (not chilled).

MrsClatterbuck · 17/01/2021 20:43

Tea as I don't really like water Blush. Though I can drink ice cold San Pellegrini sometimes.

EssentiallyDelighted · 17/01/2021 20:43

Diet Coke for me, must be ice cold.

Wildswim · 17/01/2021 20:44

Black tea

SilenceIsNoLongerSuspicious · 17/01/2021 20:45

Weirdly, non alcoholic beer. Or half juice half water.

KatSueCurry · 17/01/2021 20:45

Non alcoholic - lemon Fanta or bottle green elderflower cordial

Alcoholic - bottle of beer

CorianderBee · 17/01/2021 20:45

I've cold water. My favourite thing to drink, litres and litres of it. Never understand when people say they hate water.

Or ginger beer

TeamNegan · 17/01/2021 20:46

Ice cold lemon San Pellegrino before they ruined it 😒

Whatever it is, it has to be fizzy. Water has never quenched my thirst in my life!

SusannahSophia · 17/01/2021 20:49

Water or weak squash. Nothing too sweet and definitely nothing fizzy.
