Activity2004Administrator176 VotersAlways decaffeinated tea and coffee. Skimmed milk. Tonic water and diet cola
Cup of tea,when I get up sometimes coffee mid morning. Water or tonic with meals. Sometimes have light ovaltine before bed. Trying to drink more water to improve kidney function.
Cocoa with soy milk too.
By keeping a food diary I know how many coffees and teas I drink. I always keep a bottle of cold water with me and try to drink water the most.
Is the water bottled or is it filtered and put in a water bottle?ππππ₯
Tap water, I used to buy a lot of bottled water but now use my money more wisely.
We have a filter for the kitchen sink and fill water bottles for on the go.πππ
Hi Leah
Very good poll. I chose water, coffee, tea (Three Ginger Tea), club/diet soda (that's a very occasional treat).
Alicia
Thank you for saying that about the poll! I appreciate it very much!πππ
I drink tea a few times a day. I have diet soda sometimes with lunch depending on the day. I drink water multiple times a day with meals and my medication.ππππ₯
You're welcome Leah.
I drink a fair amount of water, that's what I'm drinking now. Diet soda is definitely a treat for me.

Decaf coffee and tea, rice milk
How many times a day do you have rice milk?ππππ₯
Just once at breakfast.
That's good! Do you have it on cereal or on the side?
Breakfast is porridge or oatibix with rice milk. I am gluten and lactose free.
Do you get on OK with Oatibix if you are following a gluten free diet? They are made with regular oats (high chance of gluten cross-contamination) and barley malt extract, and we were warned to avoid them.
Decaf coffee.
I also use kefir in smoothies.
Lots of herbal tea usually lemon and ginger , 2 pints of water throughout the day
W,C,T every day, BW mostly when travelling, M occasionally in coffee.
Decaff tea ,once a day proper coffee if I want another one - decaff. Sugar free and cafeen free pepsi , skimmed milk or fat free and sugar free almond milk. At least 2L of water every day - bottled or tap . I like pineapple and coconut juice a glass π.
Tis a good poll, my favourite is green or black tea, diluted grapefruit juice first thing in morning, juiced celery,ginger, apple later. I rarely drink with meals. Water, my family trundle into nearby woodland for fresh spring water, I boil it.
Thank you for saying that about the poll. I appreciate that very much. I was thinking of doing another poll related to different cheeses and one on different teas.
How far is the woodlands to get the spring water?
Oow cheeses and teas would be good polls. One spring water source is just 200 meters away, the other is 2miles through narrow lanes, both have watercress growing nearby which we pick for soups and salads, got to wash it a lot though.
Thank you for the great information! How long do you have to wash everything?
Yes, the cheese poll will be done in a few days.πππ
Ah good, will look forward to your cheese poll, they all give such interesting and different answers, itβs fun, thank you.
Rinse the watercress for a few minutes in fresh water, soak half hour in salt water, then another quick rinse, itβs worth it! Any sprigs with roots I plant in my garden but itβs slow without running water and tastes too peppery strong.
You must also make sure you are eating watercress, not βfools watercressβ which looks very similar, that tastes of carrots and is slightly poisonous β οΈ
Always decaffeinated tea and coffee, drinking bottled water now also for my epilepsy medication due to possible dehydration.
I found a lovely drink that tastes a bit like Campari π·. Aecorn dry aperitif. I mix it with sparkling water and itβs wonderful π
We've given up caffeine in our house as my OH had really high blood pressure and was struggling to sleep. So my coffee is now decaffeinated and my diet coke is caffeine free.
I only have 1 or 2 coffees when I first get up and maybe with breakfast, the occasional diet coke with lunch but I drink glasses of tap water all day. I always have a glass next to me and top up when empty so probably drink around 8-10 glasses per day.
I've selected water and club/diet soda. I think club soda is sparkling water?
I mostly drink water and sparkling water, with the occasional diet coke (mostly as a mixer for rum).
Sometimes I have herbal tea too.
What flavor of herbal teas do you like? Are they decaf./caffeine?
I drink mainly coconut water, also various herbal teas such as ginger tea and cinnamon tea
I also drink semi-skimmed milk. Like the Survey.
I drink de caff tea and coffee because otherwise I get heart palpitations and insomnia....thank you menopause π€¨. I donβt drink milk but I use in it my tea and coffee. My cold drink of choice is filtered water.
It's good to hear that you put milk in your coffee and tea. What flavor of tea do you use with the milk?
The best decaf tea I can find is good old Yorkshire tea. As for the best decaf coffee, I find that Percolβs decaf instant suits me. I use full cream milk because itβs lower carb than semi.
I drink Decaff too - PG tips are my current favourite but I will have to give the Yorkshire ones a try. Decaff Kenko is nice aswell π
Also fresh Oat milk supplied by the Milkman my Tea is Green Jasmine plus Pure lemon juice
Actually, Low fat milk.
Hi Leah, great poll, Iβm a tea drinker but do drink coffe and obviously water. I donβt have to worry about carbs but donβt like sugary drinks which helps. π
What's your favorite flavor of tea?
Thank you for saying that about the poll, Hidden ! I appreciate that very much. I was thinking of doing a poll on different cheeses.
I prefer a breakfast tea itβs a blend of black teas. π a cheese poll is a good idea.
Decaf filter, chicory and cacao drink, (Oatily barista edition oat milk or black if fasting) herbal tea
