[Diabetes-Talk] Things to drink

[Terri Stimmel]

Hello everyone,


I love sweet tea, and soda. For years now, I have been drinking diet soda.


However, I am starting to cut back, in hopes of eventually not drinking 
it at all.


I would still like to drink tea. Such as Lipton, ice tea. I don't really 
care for hot drinks, because I tend to get way too hot, way too easily.


So if I still would like to drink tea, what could I possibly use to cut 
down the bitterness of unsweetened tea?

Is this even possible?


I do drink water. I also have a couple of those flavor enhancers that I 
use sometimes. And sometimes I drink sparkling waters. The ones that are 
supposed to be calorie, and sugar-free. Also, we drink the 0 callorie, 0 
sweetened coolaide at times.


But are there other things I could possibly drink as well?

I have thought about finding ways to flavor regular water. But I've 
never done this before. So I know nothing about it.


Any thoughts and suggestions are much appreciated.


Thank you,


Terri
