After supper I settle down to my daily laptop duties (checking my accounts, paying bills online, etc). Then some reading. And I have to have something liquid to sip. Until a few months ago, that’s been beer or wine. Then I decided that I ought to reduce my alcohol intake, and began looking for an alternative liquid to replace some of the alcohol. Coffee wouldn’t interfere with my sleep, but I’m just coffeed-out by then. After trying various liquids I settled on Silk brand soy milk. Specifically the “Unsweetened” variety – it tastes best to me, and has the fewest calories to boot. About a month ago, I discovered the “Green Pepper” variety of Cholula, which I really like. Then I decided to try some of that in the soy milk. I know it sounds weird, but it’s absolutely delicious! Even addictive! The Green Pepper Cholula is pretty viscous, so I use the following technique to get it blended into the soy milk: I first put just a little bit of the milk into a glass (~3/16”), then the Cholula, and use a fork as a whisk to blend. Then I fill my glass with the milk and stir. Again, I know it sounds weird, but don’t knock it until you’ve tried it! Serious about crackers | ||

That is odd. Really odd. Intriguingly odd. I don't know if I can step away from my occasional old fashioned/scotch/beer long enough to try it. ____________________________ Yes, Para does appreciate humor. | |||

I love Cholula... But I will stick with Clausthaler or Buckler for an NA drink. "Crom is strong! If I die, I have to go before him, and he will ask me, 'What is the riddle of steel?' If I don't know it, he will cast me out of Valhalla and laugh at me." | |||

My "Mocktail" is tasty and refreshing, simple to make, very low calories. I like it year around but especially hot summer days. Only 3 ingredients: Sparkling Water (I use Perrier), cranberry juice (I use the low calorie Ocean Spray brand but use any you want) and a slice of lime. Start with ice in the glass. Pour in one part Cranberry Juice Add 3 to 4 parts Sparkling Water (to your taste) Add a slice or wedge of a lime, squeezed in then used as a garnish. Stir Enjoy The only issue I've ever had when referring this Mocktail is people substituting. Do NOT use tap or bottled water, mineral or tonic water. Use only Sparkling water, found in your grocery in either the bottled water or mixers area. I use Perrier brand because I get it by the case at Costco or SAMS. | |||

Has anyone experimented with making a truly ZERO alcohol "beer" ? ....like by adding malt flavor and hops to sparkling water ? The NA beers we have now still have a small quantity of alcohol as a residual of the brewing process. I know it is small, but I would like to eliminate it. ....and I love beer.  "Crom is strong!

shoot. I didn't know you could do that! That should be on some life hack list. Oh, I do like cholula. It's my number one preference. second would be Tapatio. Last would be Louisiana hot sauce. I would never go to Tabasco; it's just vinegar and hot pepper. "It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946. | |||

You ought to try a big hot cup of broth (chicken, beef or vegetable) with a couple of teaspoons of Choula chipotle. Very good with pretzels. o5 | |||

That actually takes more work than the method TatorTodd mentions. Maybe we need a bad karma draw to see who has to go out and make one of these soy-peppermilk drinks to verify. | |||

I never touch soy. Though chances are that it is only a myth, the claim long ago that soy milk causes gynecomastia has steered me away from that stuff probably forever. That drink does sound pretty good though. But anyway, for now, I'll stick with whiskey. ~Alan Acta Non Verba NRA Life Member (Patron) God, Family, Guns, Country Men will fight and die to protect women... because women protect everything else. ~Andrew Klavan | |||

I’m allergic to soy so I drink dark chocolate almond milk. I normally don’t like dark chocolate but this is amazing. __________________________ | |||
