Tea that doesn't taste like tea please?

[AlexIce]

I detest tea and coffee and have never been able to drink hot drinks until I started CD and I have learnt to drink the Golden vegetable drink but ... does anyone know of anything else I can drink as a hot drink. I am finding the hot drink welcome now that it is colder in the evenings. I would really like to find something that tastes nice and isn't tea or coffee.

the cambridge berry water flavoring made up with warm water

 

[sumayyah]

chocolate or choc mint shake made up hot

Doh! I hadn't thought of making the berry drink up with hot water! I shall try that!
Thanks Sumayyah!
Don't like the shakes or tetras though - can't drink them at all

I have a friend that quite happily sips upon hot water (lets it cool down a bit)
Boring I know, but occasionally I do this to warm up x

Hi AlexIce, I know you said not tea or coffee but when i first started CD i didn't like either black but i guess you learn to like it or at least i did but what i have found i enjoy the most is white tea, its very mild and is 100% nicer to drink than drinking normal black tea. I use the Clipper brand and its yummy. Also has fat burning properties

 

[AlexIce]

I don't think tea will work - I don't find it as repulsive tasting as coffee but white or black - I just don't think I can make myself drink it.

Ehm i don't know if it exists in england, but over here we got liquorice tea. That is if i translated it correctly.

I don;t think it tastes like tea, cause it is really sweet and i love that as a hot drink. It also helps if you feel a bit faint.

Thanks Klev - and thank you for getting the link for me. much appreciated, but unfortunately I don't like the taste of liquorice either!

[Klev]

Thanks Klev - and thank you for getting the link for me. much appreciated, but unfortunately I don't like the taste of liquorice either!

:lol: are you hard to please but you're welcome anyways

 

[Laurie]

its not exactly tea but have you tried this its nice hot marigold vegetable bouillon? its like a soup in a way

 

[AlexIce]

Klev - lol well thare are only actually 4 things I don't like - unfortunately tea, coffee and liquorice are 3 of them - the other is olives!

Laurie - thanks Wonderful - I shall send my mum off to investigate and get some.

 

[Klev]

Then liquorice tea is THE best combination for you lol, you should spice it up with a little bit of coffee and an olive on a stick

 

[AlexIce]

lol oh god even thinking about how it would smell makes me cringe!

I bought some mint tea yesterday and tried it - couldn't drink it. It would be really nice to have something else to drink which is hot apart from the CD soup as you can only have one a day.
Today I am going to attempt having the fruit drink hot - I shall tell you what it's like later!

 

[Klev]

i hope you like it, would be nice if you found something you like. What i don't get, you're only allowed one soup a day??

Why?? We are allowed as many soups or shakes as we please on a day.
