All manner of the hot and the wet...depends on so many things.
Iced drinks are for Greek islands only.

Instant coffee... but most out there are crap, so there’s only a few I can drink.

When it comes to coffee- since having my first ever bean to cup coffee I've never bought a single tin/jar of instant coffee

I now have a small bean to cup set-up at home(Auto Grinder , £20 filter coffee machine & seperate milk frother)

And I know every time i buy and make Coffee exactly what I'm buying in those beans

also using Brita Maxtra Filtered Water has brought taste to a higher level

never had a better cup of coffee than what i make myself , better than all the big chains by far

coming from someone that used to frequent Costas in all different countries

occasionally i treat the fish to filtered water when i do water changes(obviously i still add conditioner) but i can guarantee there's less nasties in this than my tap water

In my work, I was often offered a hot drink. Not only might it've been rude to decline, it would be passing up an opportunity to spend some 'normal' time with someone.
That said, I soon learned to enjoy my hot drinks black, having been offered various coloured yoghurts and cheeses with my brews.

Dolce Gusto for my coffee and Twinings herbal teas for me

When I was a child, I had to drink coffee with a lot of sugar because I had asthma and back then there were no rescue inhalers. My doctor relied on me drinking a cup of coffee before school and whenever needed during the day. So I’ve drank the stuff since I was five or maybe younger. I don’t use the drip coffee makers, and I never buy ground coffee. Every morning I grind enough to make four cups in my camping coffee pot that percolates on my stove top. I quit using sugar decades ago and drink it black. I think using the old time percolator has two advantages: you let it percolate to your desired strength and it is truly a hot cup of coffee.

Sweet coffee is good for asthma?

I can honestly say I’ve never had a truly hot cup of percolated coffee. Not as hot as straight from the kettle anyway.

I couldn’t drink that rubbish if you paid me. It’s as bad as Nescafé. At least Maxwell House had the decency to go out of business. Coffee with the flavour removed and the bitterness left in. I like mine the other way round.

Think caffeine and sugar.

Ok I’m thinking it. Hasn’t helped.

Caffeine is very, very similar to theophylline, which is a bronchodilator...opens up the tubes, in other words.
The sugar is a good energy source and replenishes that lost during the panic and efforts to breath.

 

[fishyfun&fans]

caffeine helps by allowing the body to process things quicker and de-toxify(hence too much coffee and pee'ing is inevitable)

and sugar is important as it is an energy releasing Compound(in low amounts)
