Which do you prefer? Plain water, crystal light , tang , green tea or vitamin c powder? Any suggestions are welcome. Im not into sugar free.

It's a wonderful thing to reach the top of a pass and find some snow. I love to fill a water bottle with snow and then pour a packet of pink lemonade into the bottle and add water. That is about as good as it gets for me.

Tea or lemonade.
Sometimes, a nice red wine.

Would that be Pinot, Merlot, Zin, Syrah, or Cab AT?
