Saxo, sorry, SpecsDKnobScooby diverted things.
Fruit Infusions - like tea bags, but with fruit and no caffeine. Make them up as instructed with boiling water, then allow to cool, and stick in the fridge.

 

....and such stuff has no aspartame, etc?

 

I said just vary your drinks between what you like, to stop you overdoing it on one thing or another There is a fair bit on your list that you like, surely it's just about moderation.

Also LG made a possibly good suggestion, fruit tea and let them cool.

 

Remember the time & date, it doesnt happen often

M&S do a nice strawberry one

 

I have it logged.

 

If you don't mind wine-thats as good as anything.

I am like you in this regard SB. I have a cupboard in the kitchen full of ocean spray juices.

cranberry juice
cranberry and raspberry
cranberry and blueberry
cranberry and pomegranite
cranberry and blackcurrent

I drink these a pint at a time alternated with pints of water.

Cant stand anything carbonated these days and most other soft drinks just taste chemical / synthetic to me.

 

How about watermelon juice. Though you may have make it youself

 

I sometimes have Lime cordial (Roses only) and water.

 

I don't drink Tea, Coffee, Hot Chocolate, Fizzy Pop, Dilute Pop, Orange Juice, Flavoured Water, Wine, Spirits etc, the only drinks I have are Water and Lager, so if I'm not driving it's lager with my meal if I'm driving the it's water. I drink with every meal too

 

What i dont quite get is how /why the french /else take wine with meal

Surely this means that the tastes interact maybe for the better in some circumstances but form a purists point of view how can you properly taste either for what it is ??

 

I am in no way a purist or knowledgeable as far as wine goes,but I still find it enjoyable with a meal. Don't find any particular clash with tastes anyway.
