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?

Ice cold pepsi max. Or summer fruits squash

Ice cold fizzy water! We have a soda stream so we make our own.

tenlittlecygnets · 17/01/2021 21:16

Water! Or fruit tea.

Oasis

Orange squash. Proper stuff like Rocks. Artifical sweetners give me a throbbing headache, more thirst and hours of aftertaste. Unfortunately most stuff that wasn't already ruined got contaminated a few years back.

Water can sit quite heavily on my stomach, especially if it's cold. Half-hot, half-cold id more drinkable and feels easier to absorb.

Cold peppermint tea.

Water

Another vote for plain water sorry! Or on a morning hot water with a lemon slice.

Can't drink anything fizzy as it always gives me horrendous heartburn. Even squash is doing that now.

For hangover dehydration then it's fresh grapefruit juice every time.

Chanandlerbong01 · 17/01/2021 21:27

Fanta or cold milk

Ice cold sparkling water quenches my first

Whiskysoda · 17/01/2021 21:31

Water.

SwedishK · 17/01/2021 21:34

Fridge cold water. Always.

Chalkcheese · 17/01/2021 21:34

Really cold iced tea
Fanta lemon or Fanta fruit twist with ice
Kombucha, also iced cold
Cider. Also iced cold.

Tbh just give me water and ice I'll be happy. It's the icy cold that is so thirst quenching. Although I'm told we should sup warm water for optimum health, I will never quit my ice habit 🤣

Chalkcheese · 17/01/2021 21:35

Also lime and soda

joystir59 · 17/01/2021 21:35
