Thirsty Thursday!

kgg2241 · September 2021

What are you drinking!? Let's see what kind of liquid inspiration we can get from each other! It isn't booze, but probably the next best thing. Share your tastiest mocktail ideas here!

kgg2241 · September 2021

I'm going to try to do a non-alcoholic paloma tonight. So basically just grapefruit juice and soda with simple syrup I guess. Hopefully it hits the spot.

Otherwise, I'm also looking forward to an oreo shake haha.

morgantu · September 2021

water.... waterwaterwaterwaterwater. Sometimes juice or seltzer. Mostly water. I'm allllways thirsty but also very lazy and don't want to do anything fancy.
But @kgg2241 your mention of a shake sounds good af.

Ugh I can't stomach any liquids and have aversions to alllllll of them. I currently working my way through fruit juices. I've been through pear, mango, orange, grapefruit, Grape and cherry so far. Interested to see what SO will show up with next...but @kgg2241 tell me more about this oreo shake!

goldfishcraker · September 2021

Oh my gosh @kgg2241, now I NEED an Oreo milkshake!!!

I'm not exciting.

I almost exclusively drink water. I'm parched all the time with this pregnancy.
Lately I've been throwing in a watered down glass of juice some days when I feel like I need the electrolytes to get un-thirtsty (2/3 juice to 1/3 water).

kgg2241 · September 2021

@Panaceia Haha it is really nothing too special. We are going to Culver's for dinner tonight, so I of course need to get a shake. If you don't have one, Culver's just a typical burger and shake place.

@kgg2241 culvers 🤤 at least once a week i stop there after work for fries and cheese sauce.

drinking tons of water lately and have to have a slice of lemon with it- no ice. Also, sometimes coconut water, but too much of it gives me stomach cramps haha.

Another member of the ‘water club’ here! I’ve been having an aversion to water since 1st tri though, so sometimes it’s slow going. I’ve found fruit flavored (not carbonated) water doesn’t make me gag, so I have at least one 16 oz bottle of that per day along with my plain water.

Occasionally, if I can find them, Capri Sun Apple Juice pouches are a nice treat. They’re rarely in stock though because of back to school. Lol

luckyduck42 · September 2021

When not pregnant, I really only drink water. But now, I go through phases where water is the grossest beverage ever. Flavor doesn't help, but it does need to be ice cold. Like super duper cold. I can drink plenty of water at work, because I don't have time to gag and vomit! But I will drink a small apple juice I. The morning, and a glass of ovaltine. It doesn't quench the thirst, but it is yummy!

Panaceia · September 2021

@kgg2241 We don't have Culver's but now I'm trying to figure out how I can get a milkshake...I think I have ice-cream in the freezer so I might have to make my own...

lurvleybunchococonuts · September 2021

All the water. Also love me some black tea with honey since coffee isn't my friend right now. Friggin Dunkin donuts have me DECAF tea last time I ordered. Bastards. On occasion I'll have a caffeinated bubly. I like the berry ones best.

rachelredhead · September 2021

I ordered some fake gin and whiskey from an Instagram ad. 😂 DH loves an old fashioned at night and I get jealous so he makes me a “gin” and tonic with fancy fever tree tonic and a splash of bitters. The fake gin actually does taste kinda gin-esque when you mix it with stuff. The fake whiskey is more cola-flavored so I was disappointed by my virgin old fashioned.

We had Cuban food last night and DH ordered a guava sour beer from a local brewery I love. I took one sip and wanted to chug it SO BAD. With my son I never craved alcohol, all booze sounded so awful. But this pregnancy I am SO jealous when DH has a drink.

gembud · September 2021

My go to drink - ice in a tall glass, Trader Joe’s sparkling limeaid, seltzer, splash of ginger beer, and some sort of juice whatever we have to top it 🤷🏻‍♀️

jennifer_m21 · September 2021

Not into water, either! Like others, it needs to be super cold and with ice! I've been drinking gatorade zero (blue or purple are my go-to flavors) and unsweetened iced tea!

jlbaker08 · September 2021

also drinking all the water, I'm thirsty all the time... I tried some apple cider this week and it tasted delicious by my stomach didn't like it too much. I'm craving milk, which is normal for me during pregnancy, and chug a glass of it a few times a week.

night_nurse · September 2021

@gembud that sounds delicious! I have everything except the sparkling limeade too. Going to pick some up!

thebirdgirl86 · September 2021

I've got the weirdest cravings for lemonade. So lots and lots of "Simply Lemonade", soooo good. Wish I could find a kids' lemonade stand, I'd buy them out!

Also got a Starbucks pumpkin spice latte in celebration of the first day of fall. I can't stomach coffee right now unless it's full of cream and sugar, and the PSL did the trick

thebirdgirl86 · September 2021

Oh, btw, I totally thought "Thirsty Thursday" was going to be something VERY different, ha!

kgg2241 · September 2021

@gembud that sounds delicious!

@rachelredhead I don't really miss beer, but I do love a good sour. That sounds yummy.

@thebirdgirl86 ohh and now I want a PSL. I actually don't even really like them that much but it sounds good right now.

rachelredhead · September 2021

@thebirdgirl86 same. I was kinda bummed to see we were discussing actual beverages and not these humans…

kgg2241 · September 2021

@thebirdgirl86 @rachelredhead Haha that probably would have been the better thread idea 😂.

gembud · September 2021

@night_nurse in the summer I’d do a splash of coconut water and then pineapple juice - tastes like you’re on some island drinking a cocktail

brianalee9757 · September 2021

Water, but it has to be ICE cold. I will literally put as many ice cubes in my 32 oz bottle as I can possibly fit. We also don't have ice at work OR ice cold water (it's usually luke warm 🤢) so I have to have backups in our classroom mini fridge. At the beginning I craved Panera lemonade and drank an ungodly amount but now it's really just cold water.

I'd be lying if I said I wasny anticipating my first Bahama Bay Breeze when this is over though 😂

jenis_fan_for_life · September 2021

Apple juice, water, and blue G0 Gatorade are my go to beverages at the moment! The colder the better!

lurvleybunchococonuts · September 2021

@rachelredhead @thebirdgirl I am 110% down for that sort of thirsty

Patience7150 · September 2021

Water is obviously the main one, but my fun drinks are:

- 3:1 ratio of seltzer water and simply lemonade with either a tiny splash of huckleberry syrup or frozen black berries

- Starbucks go to is an iced London fog, or a custom iced latte with 1 shot of espresso, whole milk, and 2 pumps of pumpkin syrup. Less caffeine, less sugar, and more calcium than anything I've found on the menu lol. I did try to order this in a coffee shop last weekend in rural Wisconsin and between my mask and our over caffeinated society, they definitely heard add a shot to make it 3 shots of espresso and I had to ask them to remake that one whoops.
