WHAT WORKS FOR YOU?

When the weather is very hot, and you reach for a cooling drink - what would be your choice?
Over the years, plain water, coconut water or blended fruit punch would do the job for me - but not any more. I just can't seem to beat this oppressive heat.
Is there a special cooling drink that works for you?

Some ice tea helps! It is always hot here and I always drink tea, so I guess it works!

Lime and water, fresh limes in the water works for me though I cannot drink it often.
Sorry the heat is so bad right now there for you Kandase.

Sounds like it is really heating up there. Here on the islands when it is this hot I go and jump in the river to cool off. The river is nice and fresh and does the trick. But first I need to drink a lot of cold water. I mean ice water to get me cooled down on the inside first so I can cool down the outside next.

I go with water too. Coconut water when I am outside and see a vendor.
This year it's been hot here too

The drink that I feel like drinking just for that feeling is Pepsi or Coke. I know about the sugar and all but it's tempting and that taste is like good. When I finish drinking it though I drink water lol not to even it out as there's no such thing as drinking bad drinks then evening it out with water but to take the thirst 100% lol.

I like coconut water a lot, but we drink a lot of iced black tea, using eight bags to about a quart or so of near-boiling water, then dilute it to taste with lots of ice.

@Kandae11 Black tea has lots of caffeine as well, so be aware of that,

@alexjessi I love ice-cream very much, but I hardly ever have it because it is not too healthy for me. So even though I may enjoy it when I have it, I will feel guilty because I know I shouldn't be having it.
