Is it weird that I'll put a large spoon of vegetable Oxo into a cup of boiling water and enjoy as my drink of choice when in the office?

Yes.

But not as weird as people who just have a cup of hot water.

Nothing wrong with that at all. I love a good mug of stock. Oxo chicken was my favourite. My girlfriend thinks it is disgusting.

I drink a concoction of grains smoked with bits of bog, mashed up with water, mucked about with, and then kept in an old barrel in a shed for ages before sold to me for many pounds. And it makes you pull a face when you drink it, and vomit if you drink too much.

Or whisky, as it's otherwise known.

Apple juice and ginger beer with a dash of lime.

Guaranteed to make bar staff moan tongue out

At work in Germany I noticed rather alot of employees mixing Fanta orange with Coca Cola - I didn't try it but it seemed an odd mixture.

They call it Spezi, it's actually quite nice.

Has anyone seen those tablets you can buy (probably only in the States) that make water taste like bacon? vomit

Supposed to be really nice, just never got round to it. 3/4 glass of cola and top with milk.

Bloke I knew used to put a Mars bar into a mug of boiling water, stir and drink. It didn't sound too bad.

thought it had to be OJ and not fanta.

Used to drink it after hockey as it had just the right stuff to replenish what I had lost running around.

Was called muddy water or something similar.

The German drink Spezi is fizzy orange and cola. What we always used to drink when I was younger was orange juice and cola.
