Favorite post op drink?

What is your favorite post op liquid? You know, the one that you can drink all day and not be sick of the flavor. I finally found a good one. I like to drink Desani Pink Lemondade mixed with water and had my wife buy out the supply at the grocery store the other day. How about you?

I love the Ocean Spray Cran-Cherry Limeade flavor packets! Very good! I haven't tried the Dasani....

I am a sucker for Celestial Seasonings blueberry tea or berry zinger tea. I also just discovered that Lipton is now making a diet green tea without that awful citrus flavor. Granted, they're still sweetening the green tea (which ruins the taste) but it's not bad if I pretend it's not real green tea.

I gotta try that because I have tried almost everything else and can't get passed the after taste.

Best one I have like out the of bunch was also pink lemonade, although it was crystal light brand.

Tried the costco green tea from Lipton and it seems to have the aftertaste in my mouth. That was during month 3. Maybe it will taste better now that Water in general is tasting better now for me.

Yes, agree. A lot of Water enhancers out there have a bad aftertaste. For me that has been crystal light and Mio. They may taste ok at first, but then really get weird if drinking them all day. Ocean spray is pretty good. Desani is the only one I have found I can tolerate drink after drink during the day. However, I am looking for other alternatives. Hence, the motivation behind this post. There is also another Desani I like that is pineapple / coconut flavor ( like a piña colada). However, be warned: I have found that Desani strawberry kiwi gets to me after a while as too sticky syrupy. The pink lemonade is actually very clean tasting and refreshing.

Yes, I like those on occasions when I want the extra energy from the added caffeine. I can't drink them all day though. I am thinking about the Mio energy flavors with electrolytes and caffeine. Are those the ones you are talking about?

I buy the electrolyte enhanced water, like smart water from Costco and then add any flavor MIO.

I have never seen the desani brand where I shop... were are you buying them from. I have also heard good things about the pineapple/coconut flavor in another thread.

Anything that tastes like pina colada can't be all bad!

I buy them from Target, not sure where you would find them in Canada. If you cannot find them at a grocery store, drive down to Bellingham, WA for some or order online at Amazon.

I buy MIO drops without the added caffeine. My personal favorite is the strawberry watermelon, although the orange tangerine is a close second. I've also discovered that some brands of coconut flavored water are good now. I couldn't stand coconut presurgery. I will also kill a gallon of decaf tea in a day if I make it. If I'm out and must get a drink from a restaurant, I order unsweet tea and add my own splenda.
