OK the topic link is tenuous but I am having real problems drinking in pubs

[KatyMac]

Mainly because I don't drink alcohol

But neither do I drink coke/OJ/fruit juices

I don't like lemonade out of the tap thingie/J2O

& mainly I like sweet drinks (at home I like ribena or Welshs Grape & peach juice)

So can you suggest something I could drink?

I like tonic water with a slice of lemon.

soda and lime

Not nearly sweet enough

I don't do water - it makes me pass out

blackcurrent?

they have blackcurrent cordial in pubs. for rum and black. ask for rum and black without the rum

xpost (we must be right)

No because they generally buy cheap(er) squash & that tend to have artificial sweetners in (ribena doesn't)

Blackcurrant cordial and tap water. (THey will hate you as they can't charge you more than about 25p for it but are legally obliged to serve you). You could also try blackcurrant and soda/sparkling water. And some pubs still have bottles of lime cordial/orange squash/peppermint cordial behind the bar, you could try one of those.

i like appeltise

Pubs around our way do tea, coffee and hot chocolate

oooh appletise, yum

wow, youre one fussy woman

In the pub where I work we have proper squash/blackcurrant and lime cordials

I know

I have IBS, low blood pressure & a sweet tooth

I'd go for soda and black

COsts 20p, is sweet and sounds cool..

what more can a girl want!!

a packet of opal fruits and a glass of water??

crisps and lemonade?

No - no water at all....

I'm not being intentionally awkward - it comes naturally

Lemonade and lime - my mum's favourite, and v. nice. Fresh orange and lemonade also nice. And look at virgin cocktails in cocktails list.

Lemonade and lime.

Glass of hot water and a sachet of sugar or three.

That's how I have my tea-for all intents & purposes

It is getting boring - I tried that purple J2O & it was crap
