Which drinks do you find best for quenching your thirst?
I like a cup of tea.

Water and lots of it, room temperature rather than ice cold.

I would have said Roses lime cordial and soda but can't find it anywhere at the moment. There was even a letter in the Telegraph yesterday about lack of supplies. Strange..... hmm

Iced coffee, strong, not too sweet, quite milky, loads of ice in a pint glass. Delicious and VERY refreshing

Sparkling water ice cold,& other odd times Flavoured sparkling water ice cold again.all lidlls own brands. But if you want an instant cooling down drink, although only if you are brave enough to try one! Slush drink,instant cool down & instant Brain freeze,but so worth it,& they stay cold to the very last slurp.

Lemongrove the sun is always over the yardarm somewhere in the world! wink

I have become very partial to Lidl DeLuxe Sicilian lemonade, it is quite tart rather than sweet.

Kim19, where do you buy grapefruit juice with bits?
Or do you make it yourself?

I love coffee, and drink it all day, but I've never had an iced one.
Definitely on the 'to do' list!

Elderflower cordial gets my vote, very refreshing during this horrid heatwave.

plain tapwater which in this heat i keep in the fridge so icy cold, so refreshing.

Sorry JanT8, I've only just returned to this post. Didn't see your request. I buy GJ at Sainsburys. It's their own brand in a pinkish coloured carton. When not available - often, I might add - I revert to Tropicana which is more expensive but I've now discovered, regularly on offer.
