uhhhh, lets see... basic at Jackson, advanced at Gordon, a brief sojourn at Benning School for Boys as an Officer's wife. yeah, I ended up choking on a lot of syrup before I learned the "unsweetened!" mantra!

I can see myself making a lot more flavored tea this summer too, some of the ones I've been drinking hot seem like they'd be even better iced.
MANY of the flavoured teas are excellent iced! I drink about a half gallon daily of Republic of Tea's green tea, honey, ginseng with just a touch of added honey iced. some of the teas I posted for pooh yesterday are great iced, especially The Good Earth. Celestial Seasoning's Red Zinger is incredibly refreshing iced. nice and tart and quenching!

I find it odd. Before I moved to Israel, drinking water without sugar was the most absurd idea. It took me 8 years to start drinking still water. Since then I don't drink any type of coke, any type sweetened juices (maybe once in a blue moon or on holidays) or tea with sugar.

A cup of Lapacho is almost ready (at least in my mind), off to bed.
that is absolutely correct. if you have been performing heavy physical exercise, the stomach is very likely to start cramping if you introduce cold water to it
