What are you drinking?

[Aggie]

water

[Sibling Zono (anon1mat0)]

An energy drink to avoid falling flat on my back...

[Swatopluk]

Can't you guess it without me spelling it out?

[Aggie]

You spelled it out 6 times, if one sounds out the words letter by letter...


I'll spell what I'm drinking out:  H 2 O

[Swatopluk]

coke (not the white stuff)

[Darlica]

Assam tea, as black and strong as a good coffee. 

[Swatopluk]

This reminds me that it is time for tea

[Aggie]

Dihydrogen oxide, with some calcium bicarbonate, magnesium carbonate, and assorted other goodies in it.

[Swatopluk]

Two tea for me

[Sibling Zono (anon1mat0)]

Is coke (the white stuff) soluble in water? How incredibly stupid (and painful) would be to ingest it that way?

Iced tea with a bit of berry juice.

[Aggie]

Pain-free, assuredly - it's a topical anesthetic, as evidenced by the many related but non-abusable related compounds (benzocaine, novocaine, etc.).  Whether it'd do much is a different story - despite Dave Chapelle's reference to a 'crack sandwich' in one skit. 


More dihydrogen oxide, this time with dihydrogen carbonate, plus probably a trace of bisphenol A from the can liner .

[Sibling DavidH]

Dihydrogen oxide with carbon dioxide and also a touch of (R)-(6-methoxyquinolin-4-yl)((2S,4S,8R)- 8-vinylquinuclidin-2-yl)methanol.  Or so they say.   

[Swatopluk]

Never got the hang of organic chemistry. Gimme simple sulphuric acid

The usual chamomile tea

[Lindorm]

A 2008 Chateau Haut Magne, a white Graves wine.

Darlica thinks it's a bit like a Pieper-Heidsieck, but without the bubbles. I think it is a bit like a pergola full of white flowers, with a bit of minerals and sour apples thrown in. The nose is quite big and flowery, the aftertaste a bit more tart and closed.

We are drinking it plain as it is, but I think it could go very well with fish or shellfish, either a bit spicy or with some rich sauce -poached fish with a beurre blanc, or some spicy stir-fried shellfish for example. It's probably to acidic to be a good pairing with cheese.

All in all, quite refreshing in the summer heat.
