Best thirst-quenching drink - non-alcoholic

[Cambsred]

In a previous life working away I used to live off Lemon Fanta and Frappes.

Ice coffee, with cream rather than milk used to be a real treat when it was hot.

Never the same in the UK. Blackcurrant cordial here with ice- heavily watered down generally too as my parents used to make it.

Can’t decide between these two thirst quenchers.

I used to drink gallons of this when living in Singapore, it tastes pretty awful but it's terrific at keeping you hydrated and replacing vital vitamins and salts.

Also worth noting that it tastes better from a can than from a plastic bottle as they also sell.

Unusual combination.

A pint of fresh orange and lemonade.

The correct answer is obviously ice cold water (after running the tap for ages while stood there with your hand on the tap).

If you're talking Fanta however, this one takes some beating (but you will have to go to Brazil to get it).

It was our half-time go to drink when I was playing footy in Brunei, I actually really like the flavour too! It’s available here in Thailand but absolutely agree about being better from a can, it’s mostly in plastic bottles when I see it.

When I'm on holiday and all hot and sweaty with a mouth that's been dried up from the salty all you can eat breakfast bacon, nothing hits the spot like a lemon fanta.
Granted, you cant chug it because of the bubbles - but it's always my go to drink. Strange, but I never ever buy it at home....

All Fanta drinks etc taste better away in holiday...strange but true.

I also do love an electrolyte tablet in some water, obviously

Lime juice, soda and bitters. Lots of ice.

Zero sugar Gatorade.

Way down deep in the middle of the Congo,
A hippo took an apricot, a guava and a mango.
He stuck it with the others, and he danced a dainty tango.
The rhino said, "I know, we'll call it Um Bongo"
Um Bongo, Um Bongo, They drink it in the Congo.
The python picked the passion fruit, the marmoset the mandarin.
The parrot painted packets, that the whole caboodle landed in.
So when it comes to sun and fun and goodness in the jungle,
They all prefer the sunny funny one they call Um Bongo!

I used to drink skimmed milk for refreshment; I liked it, and It only occurred to me reading this thread that I've not done it for ages.

But apparently it's just been discontinued and rebranded as Fanta

Mind. Blown.

No wonder I couldn't find it anymore, it's called something else

What idiot came up with that idea?
