Favorite drink?

There's always been a Peets here since I've been here. I used to be a Starbuck's guy, but Major Dickason's swayed me.

I used to hit a Noah's every morning when I worked downtown. Gained alot of weight that way! lol

it is definitely superior to Starbucks, it's not even close.

Hey Scott, obviously now you go to Pete's in the area, but before it was there...did you go to Starbucks on Lakeshore? I never did, I much prefered Noah's Bagels right next door, better cofee and killer bagels.

I live in the Diamond District, and a Pete's Cofee just opened, along with this French bakery called Le Ferine...heaven on earth.

Beer = Miller Chill or Corona and lime...

Corona and lime is cool...

IMO, Miller Chill is horrid, I can't stand that artificial-tasting lime, and that touch of synthetic salt, lol.

You can achieve a superior chelada-style beer with just about any beer, and it would much better than Miller Chill.

...and I do mean ANY beer.

Grab a Bud, Coors, Rolling Rock, Pabst Blue Ribbon, regular, light, any beer, and yes, Miller too (but obviously not Miller Chill)...squeeze fresh lime into the bottle, sprinkle a tad of salt, and presto, superior to Miller Chill on the spot.

You can even make it a sangrita-type beer by adding hot sauce as well.

Just to prove my point, next time buy another Miller Chill and a regular/light Miller. Fix the regular/light Miller up chelada-style, taste it, them immediately taste the Miller Chill, you'll immediately know what I'm talking about.

Try it, you'll see.

I drink a lot of H20, probably about 3 liters a day....not my preferred choice but I know it does the body good.

My favorite drinks are

San Pellegrino carbonated water...I just like the extra pizzaz to plain water
I also like the zero calorie carbonated flavored whater from Aquafina...again, a little pizzaz to plain water
Cherry Coke Zero

I don't drink any liquor or beer. I will usually have a couple of glasses of wine on the weekends and my choices range depending but I usually prefer Chardonnay and Merlot and my 1 and 2 choices.

Hmmmm....

I don't drink alcohol either. When people in my family get a little drunk they tend to get a lot stabby. So I don't risk it. (Since I kinda START a little stabby....)

But it's funny yopu mention this. Went for groceries a couple of weeks back and they had a HUGE bin full of 2L drink pitchers on sale. I bought one 'cos I don't have one. They also had a huge sale on Hi-C concentrate, so I bought some of that too. (Gotta have something to put in the pitcher.) I had forgotten how much I liked that stuff when I was a kid. (Hadn't tasted it for almost 30 years.) So now I buy that. A lot.

Mostly water
100% REAL apple juice only not the fake stuff that claims that is the real deal. It is more expensive yes, but like they say you get what you pay for. Worth every penny IMO.
Milk for breakfast because water in cereal just doesn't quite cut it.
French vanilla protein shakes
vanilla shakes

I have not consumed tea, soda or real alcohol in years. I cold turkeyed tea, soda and alcohol a long time ago. I used to drink unsweetened (Yes, no sugar) iced tea all of the time. After some time it made me too jittery so I quit it and I feel great now. Soda was making me too fat with all of the sugar. Not to mention all of the acid cannot be good for one. It was instant energy, but I would feel more tired after the sugar buzz went away. That issue has also been resolved. I stopped drinking the hard stuff years ago after not having such a good time with Firewater and Goldenschlager. Just the thought of it still makes me woozy today. I may have an occasional "skirt drink" now and then like Sex on the Beach, Mimosa or Purple Hooter. mmm.... good stuff!!! I do enjoy a nice glass of expensive wine every now and then over a nice dinner with my girl friend or to celebrate a special occasion. I would like to think by cutting out the above what I consider bad stuff I feel much better and will live much longer. Only time will tell. I will more than likely die from an avalanche of totes filled with Mego's falling on me. I hope not though. Atleast it will be more ironic that way. Oddly, I love the fresh smell of coffee, but never aquired the taste for it. yuck!!!
