Oh, Erica, I’m sorry! This is the last Crystal Light post… then back to, uh, real life?

Iced club soda with a slice of lime or orange in a clear tall glass.

Colorful… Cool… Refreshing.

For goodness sake … if beer isn’t recession proof, I don’t know what is. (besides condoms of course) I offer my friends an ice cold beer. (all-be-it a cheap beer)

Since my son and I drink only water (well, an occasional glass of wine) and milk for coffee, there is usually not much choice here. I have brewed green tea with honey for a thirsty friend of my son and will provide a beer when I know people who like it are expected. But if you just drop by the choices is water, with or without ice. Usually.

Longtime lurker here Make flavored ice cubes: I take lemon and orange zest (just small rind pieces) and some finely shopped up strawberries and raspberries and a tea spoon of honey, and add water and freeze in my ice cube containers. Then i serve ice cold water with ice cubes from the above. for a sour/a tiny bit of sweet addition to my water.

For party times I ass some mint.

For those who don’t like water I make virgin mojitos. Ground Mint and Basil with Freshly squeezed lemon juice, water, some honey and ice! YUM!

Water is my preferred drink so that’s what I always have. If I have guests for dinner I try to whip up some juice or apple cider.

I offer whatever I have at the time, which is usually water, milk, coffee, tea, or sometimes juice (100% juice). I don’t keep alcohol on hand.

The first thing I do when someone walks in is offer them a drink: wine, water, beer (in that order). Or, on special occasions, one of my killer margaritas. These have proved to be the downfall of many.

Water, sometimes iced cold, sometimes room temperature. Just offer a beverage to quench thirst. And not too much sugar for the young at heart.
