Default What do you want to eat/drink when it's hot?

At home I always have cold water in the fridge. I fill 1 litre bottles and
semi freeze them then put them back down in the fridge part. I also like
icy cold cans of Pepsi Max (Pepsi 1 to you I believe).

If out driving I like nothing better than pulling into Maccas drive through
and getting a diet coke. It has a goodly bit of ice in it and the machine
diet coke somehow has a dry taste rather than a sweet one which I really
like.

As to food, its salad all year round in my house. Large one in summer, small
one accompanying cooked veggies in winter.
