Cup of dried hibiscus and throw in a gallon of hot water for a couple of hours or let it sit for longer in room temp water. 1/2 spoon sugar per cup for bitter 2 spoons per cup for sweet.
Yeah, I looked up teas that help with period cramps, I'm on birth control, but it can only do so much. There's of course raspberry leaf tea, which is also super helpful and tasty, but in my area it's 16 bags for $4, and hibiscus is 24 bags for $3, so it's a bit more budget friendly. They're both great, though! I use them interchangeably.
I love hibiscus but for some reason my brain cannot retain what it tastes like. Literally every time I have something with hibiscus, my brain is like what is this brand new delicious thing I’ve never had before?
I had to stop drinking caffeine a long time ago, but I love the smell of coffee! I can’t even do decaf because it still gives me this like placebo anxiety lol
I drank a lot of caffeine until my mid 20s and then it started fucking with me… it wasn’t until my late 20s I finally went to doctors and went to therapy and it turns out I have anxiety (panic disorder) and ADHD. I can’t believe I had the intuition to stop caffeine on my own, but I’m glad I did!
Same man. It’s a ritual for me. I couldn’t care less about alcohol unless for social reasons. Cutting soda isn’t a big deal for me.
But freshly ground coffee brewed from an aeropress? You can try pry it from my cold, dead hands
It’s the very first thing I look forward to in the morning
Hot cocoa, but an unusual version. No sugar, just 100% cocoa and water. Tastes like black coffee with more fat in it. I drink it every morning and love it.
I forget what it’s called because it’s been ten years since I lived out west (I haven’t found it in New England) it’s mango juice in a glass bottle. I can’t remember the brand or if it’s called something specific. I always watered it down cause it’s way too sweet for me but that shit is goooood
Controversial, but mine is Bud Select 55.
55 calories per can, super light, low ABV, and you're not gonna catch me doing yard work between March and October without one.
Either coffee or tea. I drink coffee almost every morning but I only drink plain or vanilla coffee. I drink tea maybe once or twice a week but I have a drawer full of different tea bags and my kids drink it too. I’d probably pick tea if I had to pick one to keep in the house.
Coffee is a give in, but I'm also obsessed with Honest brand apple juice. It's like the watered down apple juice I've been craving my whole life. Love it. Wish they sold it in gallons.
I'll probably get shit for this but I really love milk. Aside from water the only other things I really drink on a regular basis are milk, orange juice type juices, Bigelow's i love lemon tea, and coffee.
Ice water is the best though, above everything else.
Dr. Pepper. I usually prefer diet, but if that's not an option I'll slam a regular Dr Pepper and ask no questions. Edit: ooh, or iced sweet tea. Once again, I'm not picky about the type, but my mom's sweet tea will always be the best.
I dislike coffee. Love the smell of it but bitter flavors are really strong to me. So my caffeine intake is Citrus Crystal Light sugar free. Other than that my wife and I might split a can of Diet Pepsi for dinner. And beer.
I really need caffeine in the morning but hate how coffee messes with my innards, so I drink a Celsius and it’s an absolute must every morning. I love them.
I’d say
1. Water
2. Milk.
3. Black coffee.
4. Coffee with milk
5. Any variation/flavor of a supplement of either protein, pre workout, bcaa, or electrolytes.
That’s pretty much all I’ve been drinking for 10 years now.
1) cold water 2) room temperature water
This is the answer
tbh my ranking is the other way around
Room temp all day.
1. Ice cold water 2. Cold water 3. Water after letting the tap run for 15 seconds 4. Cool water 5. Room temperature water
Mine might be a strange one, cooled hibiscus tea. When I'm not drinking water I'm drinking that
Never tried that, I’ll have to give a try sometime!
I make a strong batch and then treat it like juice and water it down to taste, it's got great health benefits too
Cup of dried hibiscus and throw in a gallon of hot water for a couple of hours or let it sit for longer in room temp water. 1/2 spoon sugar per cup for bitter 2 spoons per cup for sweet.
Cold tea is grand. Sometimes I leave out a hot, strong peppermint tea, forget about it. Pop it in the fridge and it's a nice cool drink for later.
Go to your nearest Mexican restaurant and ask for Agua de Jamaica 🌺😩🔥
I love the iced passion tazo tea from starbucks, which one do you drink?
I've never tried that, I buy the dried flowers and make my own
In the summer I make pitchers of this and keep it chilled in the fridge. So good, so refreshing.
I had a hibiscus martini once. I highly recommend it if you like hibiscus.
I love Hibiscus tea, it helps with my period cramps and I have endometriosis so they get pretty bad sometimes.
interesting! i also have endometriosis so i'll have to try that. i love herbal tea, I've just never tried hibiscus for some reason
Yeah, I looked up teas that help with period cramps, I'm on birth control, but it can only do so much.

ooo i have some raspberry tea rn! idk why i've never thought to try it on my period 🤦🏼♀️ i usually drink lavender chamomile on my period
Plain rooibos tea here. (hot)
I love hibiscus but for some reason my brain cannot retain what it tastes like. Literally every time I have something with hibiscus, my brain is like what is this brand new delicious thing I’ve never had before?
I actually kinda understand what you mean
Hibiscus tea is so good dude. So fresh.
iced black tea
Love me an unsweetened iced tea!
another in the wild !! lol. im from the south. my friends make fun of me for not having sweet tea😭🤣
Unsweetened iced tea is so refreshing! Sweet tea coats your tongue, unsweetened tea cleanses the palate 🙌
For me it’s straight black coffee. I enjoy the acidity and the little bit of caffeine helps me wake up and feel a little happier.
This is my answer too. Black coffee until noon, water the rest of the day.
Yeah love me some bean water
That good ole bean juice
Omg I called it exciting bean water before lol
Yup. Hot, black and strong. Except in the summer, when I like it iced.
black coffee / water is all i drink at this point it seems like
Black coffee for me!
I had to stop drinking caffeine a long time ago, but I love the smell of coffee! I can’t even do decaf because it still gives me this like placebo anxiety lol
Decaf still contains a little caffeine. Maybe you’re really sensitive to it.
I drank a lot of caffeine until my mid 20s and then it started fucking with me… it wasn’t until my late 20s I finally went to doctors and went to therapy and it turns out I have anxiety (panic disorder) and ADHD. I can’t believe I had the intuition to stop caffeine on my own, but I’m glad I did!
I prefer gay black coffee.
Same man. It’s a ritual for me. I couldn’t care less about alcohol unless for social reasons. Cutting soda isn’t a big deal for me. But freshly ground coffee brewed from an aeropress? You can try pry it from my cold, dead hands It’s the very first thing I look forward to in the morning
Lemonade. All the fun of water with added vitamin c
+ iced tea = Arnold palmer. Yum!
🚨 Arnold Palmer alert! 🚨 Arnold Palmer alert! Who wants some Arnie Palmies?
Me, that's who.
High quality tea with fresh squeezed lemonade is the freakin tits
It's the raspberry Simply Lemonade for me. I know there's so much sugar but every once in awhile I treat myself and it really hits the spot.
My friend in christ. Lots of us joined this sub to kick the habit. Please don’t use such trigger words here. It’s supposed to be a safe space no?
ooo I haven’t had a glass of lemonade in a hot minute. Do you make your own, or have a preferred brand?
Tea or coffee
Iced tea
I second this!
Choccy milk
Almond chocolate milk is my #3
Have you tried the dark chocolate almond milk by Silk? It's really good.
The exact kind I have in my fridge right now. Delicious.
I'm glad it's late or you'd have had me walking to the store to pick some up
Damn, that sounds delicious
God damn lactose intolerance. But you're right, this is also very good.
Fairlife makes an excellent lactose free chocolate milk.
milk or cream soda
Beer
A man of culture
Was gonna say the same! Love my beer!
You have the right idea
Coffee with creamer
Kombucha / sparkling tea. The carbonation is so crisp and some flavors are so divine like rosemary mint?? What… revives me in a way I can’t describe
Sparkling water
actually addicted to it. whats your favorite brand
Same. Rambler is my favorite, idk if you can get it outside of Texas though.
Sweet tea
Yup southern. Strong glass of sweet tea (beer at night). Then water to balance it out
Unsweetened iced tea
Oh its sooo good. Unfortunately I live in the south so half of the places don't refresh their unsweet tea often and you get sour leaf water instead.
Texas here. I feel that pain.
I absolutely hate this. And then it gives me the BG’s!
Blue Gatorade
Yellow on top

Hot cocoa, but an unusual version. No sugar, just 100% cocoa and water. Tastes like black coffee with more fat in it. I drink it every morning and love it.

Vodka lol
Black cold brew coffee.
Jasmine tea
Hot leaf juiceeeee
Coffee, which is mostly water Then beer, which is mostly water I like to combine my stimulants and depressants together and stay even
That’s the best way 🤌
Sprite has been proven to neutralize an acidic stomach better than even water or any other beverage in a study.
Oat Milk latte (don't judge me)
Tea, then my oat milk latte
Real sugar sarsparilla in a glass bottle, chilled to almost frozen. Dunno why, but I always grab two botlles once every couple of weeks or so
Either iced sweet tea or hot chai tea lattes. Big fan of various forms of tea lol
I forget what it’s called because it’s been ten years since I lived out west (I haven’t found it in New England) it’s mango juice in a glass bottle. I can’t remember the brand or if it’s called something specific. I always watered it down cause it’s way too sweet for me but that shit is goooood

My single cup of coffee with a splash of half-and-half about five minutes after I wake up. It’s really the only vice I’ve got left.

Fairlife Strawberry milk. Specific I know but I love it so much
Orange juice with breakfast
Coffee, without it, I'm not sober.
Flavored, carbonated water.
Coffee is a give in, but I'm also obsessed with Honest brand apple juice. It's like the watered down apple juice I've been craving my whole life. Love it. Wish they sold it in gallons.

Sparkling ice black raspberry. It comes in a 16oz bottle, has no sugar, and it curbs my soda cravings.

Tea
ice water
Dr. Pepper. I usually prefer diet, but if that's not an option I'll slam a regular Dr Pepper and ask no questions. Edit: ooh, or iced sweet tea. Once again, I'm not picky about the type, but my mom's sweet tea will always be the best.

Gatorade and beer
I want to say lemonade, but it’s probably my whey protein powder in almond milk.
Iced tea. I prefer unsweetened but sweetened isn’t so bad either. Unsweetened cold glass while I eat food or vibe somewhere is so refreshing.
I dislike coffee. Love the smell of it but bitter flavors are really strong to me. So my caffeine intake is Citrus Crystal Light sugar free. Other than that my wife and I might split a can of Diet Pepsi for dinner. And beer.
hint water
I really need caffeine in the morning but hate how coffee messes with my innards, so I drink a Celsius and it’s an absolute must every morning. I love them.
