Excellent stuff: (though 40% instead of what's in the pictured bottle)

[Coco]

tea: Vietnam Yen Bai OP — very good black tea, strong and malty

Whole milk. One gallon a day.

I almost do this. 3/4 a gallon a day of reduced fat for the last 3 or 4 years. My fat intake is probably 150% as much as the average person's...

32 oz. of water before noon.

Home made lemonade.

Recipe: Dissolve sugar in hot water (boil the water), let it cool, keep it in a empty bottle of wine for instance. Squeeze an orange apple, take some sugar water, put it in a glass and fill with cold water. With one orange apple you can have 1/2 litre of lemonade.

First time I made this. Tastes great!

Lately, I've been getting back into drinking beer, mainly locally crafted products from the Piedmont Triad - North Carolina now has over dozens of brewing companies of various sizes.

Most recently, my son was visiting so I thought an introduction to one of the many local brews would be of interest; so for the last 3 days we've been sharing some Natty Greene's Amber Ale - I prefer darker beers and this one is quite tasty.  Winston-Salem also has several local brew establishment, including Foothills Brewing w/ a restaurant downtown. 

P.S. For those interested, a little history on Natty Greene's, named after Nathaniel Greene, American Major General during the Revolution here and leader of the Americans against Cornwallis at the Battle of Guilford Court House - Greensboro did not exist then and later when establish was obviously named after Greene.

Alright Monkey Greg, what are you drinking??!

I think I'll start a beer in a moment. It will be a Left Hand Fade to Black, a black ale that I'm not really sure how I feel about.

Could only make it to Kroger, so it's Fat Tire tonight. Not that I'm disappointed, I enjoy it quite a bit.

Yeah, Fat Tire's a good standby, go-to beer. I also like Alaska Amber for that purpose.

Never tried it. Where's it from?

Cheers, Ray.

I personally dislike beer and all alcoholic drinks. Never have acquired the taste. For me, tea is the drink of champions.

I wasn't big on sweet tea until I moved here to GA.

It's all about how it's brewed and what percentage of sugar is used. One of the keys to making iced tea, and you may want to try this, Greg, is, before you start boiling your tea bags, to add some salt to the pot. This helps get rid of any kind of bitter edge in the tea, especially the aftertaste. When I'm making a gallon, I usually use four scoops of sugar and as I'm adding the water (from a Pur water filter), I never ever stop stirring until the tea pitcher is full.
