A smoothie is basically a drink made with water and fruit in a blender. There are all sorts of variations from there. For example, some smoothies are frozen (like shakes), and others contain vegetables as well as fruits. In the end, the usage of the word will depend on how the people in marketing want to use it.

[QUOTE=CM]Firstly only lipton is good for ice tea. I prefer Lipton for my real tea with milk. I drink earl grey without milk.

Plus ice tea is only good when it is made with tea bags.

Magrus i think its just not with coke. IF anybody takes anything that is in liquid form away from you they suffer alot :p [/QUOTE]

So true, anything that I can drink, eat, or spend. You take my food, i'll put a fork through the offending appendage. My drink I bruise you, my booze, I maim you. My money, well, there's those thing called contracts... ;) Oh, girls too, whats mine is mine and you can look and talk to, but no touching. Touching my girl is very bad mojo. :p

I brew my own tea, go through about a gallon of it a day or so. It's my cheap drink and caffiene fix and I save about $50 a month drinking tea instead of soda.

As far as smoothies go, my friends parents are leaving town and I'll be making fruit/booze smoothies with her in about a week. Any suggestions for combinations? :confused:

Re: Magrus

It's not really fruit and booze, but now that it is spring outside, if you want to impress someone then make them a mojito. It is a cuban drink, like a mint julep, and it is amazing. I got this recipe from here:

Ingredients:
3 fresh mint sprigs
2 tsp sugar
3 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 oz light rum
club soda

Instructions:
In a tall thin glass, crush part of the mint with a fork to coat the inside. Add the sugar and lemon juice and stir thoroughly. Top with ice. Add rum and mix. Top off with *chilled* club soda (or seltzer). Add a lemon slice and the remaining mint, and serve.

If you really want to impress, garnish with fresh mint and a slice of sugar cane.

I have a great margarita recipe as well. Hope this helps!

Uh oh, reading that is inspiring me to go and buy a bottle of light rum :D
I do not, as a general rule, drink c0cktails, but Mojitos are a major exception.

I second Cuchulain, this is a serious 'must try' :D

I might have to try that. We'll have 4-5 days to party, soooo, maybe that could be one of the nights. ;)

Enhancing smoothies with alcohol is a definate vice of mine. Rum and Vodka go pretty well with almost any combination of fruits and vegetables, though I try to avoid using vegetables in smoothies. They just don't end up tasting right.

I'm another one of those people that will maim you if you try to take food or alcohol from me. I've had friends grab a drink from me, get an evil look, and put it right back in my hand before any real damage could be done.

Oh, and what is with the female addiction to Diet Coke? I don't think it tastes anything like the real stuff, but I've noticed way more Diet Coke addicts than regular Coke or Pepsi addicts.

The whole "less calorie" thing is my only guess there. ;)

Absinthe makes the heart grow fonder.
It's been said already :p Check out the citadel :rolleyes: :D

Personally, I'm not a big soft drink drinker... I drink tap water more often than anything else, (spring water when I eat out at restaraunts) simply becuase I live in a hard water area, and I love the taste :)

If I don't have a daily intact of stupid amounts of sugar in the form of a certain red branded drink then I tend to act normally & we can't have that can we

I beg your pardon my young flunge wobbler! I am very healthy thank you, I'm 10/1/2 stone of pure muscle, have excellant cardio vascular capabilities and have a strangely high metabolism so I can eat pretty much anything and not put on fatty weight. As for the horniness......well yes your right about that, some women just can't handle 3 hours non stop pleasure, strange but true

I pretty much hate fruit in all it's incarnations. I'll drink OJ or myabe apple juice. I like cranberry with booze, that's pretty much it.

I prefer something drier. Between coke and pepsi I like coke, though I was raised on pepsi. I really prefer RC or Jolt though as they are drier yet.

Edit: Mint Juleps with rum!?!? YUCK!
Rum's not fit for consumption no matter what you mix with it.

Frustrating in the extreme isn't it? :( :p

I'm still struggling with the whole fruit and booze combos. Luckily I have a recipe thread now for such a thing.

I've heard exhaustion is a killer, so maybe women's bodies turn off automatically and they have to stop after such a long ride...just a thought, ;) !

Coke by far. Actually, I cannot remember the last time Pepsi was in my house other than New Years when someone else brought it. :(
