What is your favorite drink?

[Corno Dolce]

Dear Intet,

Nope, no warnings on cans of Dr. Pepper. When I realised how effective it was at cleaning the wheels of my Mazda, I then vowed never to drink the stuff again - I mean, imagine what it does to your stomach and intestines if it can clean metal alloys - YIKES!!!!!!!

Pop of any kind is hard on the teeth because of the acid in it. That's why
I always drink coffee or tea. If you do drink coca cola or Dr pepper or
any soft drink use a straw so that it will miss your teeth. Alcoholic drinks
are also hard on the teeth because it's refined sugar. One ounce of
whiskey has as much as 10 pounds of sugar in it. That is what distillers
use as one of the ingredience in it.

"One ounce of whiskey has as much as 10 pounds of sugar in it"??? I'm sure that diabetics love to hear that.......No, my stepfather is a diabetic - takes three insulin shots a day - and takes a snifter of Single Malt Scotch Whiskey every evening at 8:00 p.m. His internal medicine specialist doctor has no problems with his intake of Scotch Whiskey, as long as it does not go beyond one snifter per evening.

Thank you Corno Dolce

But like you know, as well as I, what I already stated weeks ago, Viagra was invented in America perhaps because of the need of a substitute after reguraly drinking Doctor Pepper :lol::lol::lol::lol::banghead::smash::scold::nut:.

However my dear friend, who has grown increasingly in my admiration since those early days in January. I salute you for your most favourable and reasonable choice of alcohol. The Laphroig Whiskey is for connesseurs and other distingquished feinsmeckers. I drink it so rarely, that the sharp however round taste itself seems new to me every time. I can have one glass of this shrewed whiskey for hours, just smelling it. To me it is the Prime Luxury among alcoholic drinks, something I would be violent over should any hammerhead decide to challence me for this one alcohol. There must be limits in life even from jerks - to arrogant behaviour.

I was surprised to find out how many beer drinkers there are here in
Madisonville. Some of them can't control themselves on it. They
drink so much beer that they fall out drunk. Otherwise they binge drink.
I can understand at least one mug of beer with something to eat but
to drink about five cans full until they fall out is unreal. I would rather
myself when I have a mug full is to drink like a german with some pretzels
to counteract the alchohol. It still relaxes me where I can get some good
sleep later. I don't like being drunk myself like that.

Can some one please tell me, what excactly is Dr. Pepper?

In my opinion, (judging from the last time I had either which was years ago :lol:,) Dr Pepper tastes basically the same as Cherry Coke.... Not a big fan of it.

Ms. Judy

On behalf of my mostly very troubled gender around the typical invironment of male losers in bars in generel and around "Happy Hour" in particular. The ones you describe for having one beer after the next, reaching the state of utterly imbecil selfish behaviour - Unfortunately, it´s a male thing.

I can´t figure it out either, never could. Though, I am 54 years of age, and I am a man. What is the fun awakening at the nearest police pricint with a tremendous hangover, dirty, stinking of boose and sweat, having wettening yourself during your drunk sleep, unable to remember the next morning, what went on the night before?

Realising you ain´t even got a dollar for a cap to bring you to work or to find an explanation that will do it in front of the misses, when you left yesterday to buy some milk for the younger children of your family?

I have my own theory to why male losers often drink with other male losers - they are among equals both drinking and all losers.

 

[Krummhorn]

Can some one please tell me, what exactly is Dr. Pepper?

Intet-at-tabe,

To put is simply, Dr. Pepper is carbonated prune juice. Drink too much of it and ... :crazy: ... well ... ... let's just say it will keep you on the move. :lol:

. . . One ounce of
whiskey has as much as 10 pounds of sugar in it. That is what distillers

Hmmm, that is hard to swallow ... the main ingredients for whiskey are barley, water and yeast. Sugar is a by product from the malting process and is drawn off before distilling. This site has some interesting information on the processes.

Found this interesting site for Sugar content in Fruits and Alcoholic Beverages. It shows no sugar content in distilled spirits.

 

[methodistgirl]

I remember someone telling me how they made homemade whiskey
and they used tons of sugar in the ingredients.:grin:

Master Krummhorn

As always thank you for the clarification. But I do believe Corno Dolce already put it rather plain and stright forward, about the risks of drinking Doctor Pepper.

 

[intet_at_tabe]

Master Krummhorn and Corno Dolce

Is Doctor Pepper a very popular drink in the USA, like Coca Cola or orange juice? Is it specificly for children or advertised as well for adults?

 

[Corno Dolce]

Dear Intet,

Some people swear by Dr. Pepper - they've probably got cast-iron stomachs. For those of us with a more tender and delicate internal constitution I would not recommend it. Dr. Pepper is an equal opportunity offender, whether the consumer is a child or an adult. It is marketed to all ages. :shake::shake::shake:

Cheers,

[Krummhorn]

Being diabetic, I can't have the normal soda unless they are "diet" ... and diet prune juice is terrible ... Actually, I use "leaded" coca cola for removing the tar from my car and mag wheels. My son loves the stuff ...

 

[methodistgirl]

Pop can be hard on your kidneys and bladder. I don't drink it too often.
I still prefer coffee and tea over pop. I like milkshakes too when it comes
down to mixed drinks. Especially chocolate!

I used to just love chocolate shakes ... now just thinking about one makes my blood glucose readings rise 30% ... I've tried the "diet shakes" - horrible taste.
Glucerna is the closest thing to a chocolate shake that I can drink these days.

 

[JLS]

Dr. Pepper is one of the major soft drinks in America. Right up there with Coke and Pepsi. It does have some prune juice in it, I believe, but it certainly is not carbonated prune juice as some here would have you believe. It is simply the most delicious Coca Cola product ever made. I suppose if I had to compare it to another carbonated beverage, root beer would be the closest.

I did have a new drink last night in celebration of St. Patrick's Day. An Irish Car Bomb. It is a pint of Guinness with a shot of whiskey dropped in. It is traditionally finished in one go. Quite yummy!

 

[methodistgirl]

I will agree with Krummhorn on this. As for Diet Dr. Pepper and pepsi
you might as well give me an Alka Seltzer. That's what they taste
like here in Madisonville. I've tried both. As for a diet drink I rather
have a diet coke or 7up when I have an upset stomach.
Dr pepper is it's own company. They are not with Coca cola.
Especially not here. Dr. pepper belongs with RC Cola&Co.

[intet_at_tabe]

Thank you all of you guys for the honest answer to Doctor Pepper. I have learned by personal experience that Coca Cola helps the stomach, but never the teeth. Thank you.

 

[Muza]

my favorite would be green tea. Besides being my favourite, its my medicine for most everything

 

[methodistgirl]

I never had green tea but I did drink some strawberry flavored bottled
water once. It tasted pretty good.
