Unless you move to Greece. It was "out of season" in the winter and near impossible to find. And I had a friend who tried to order iced tea in Boston in the winter and was told it wasn't in season. :yes:

Yes

Don't just open your mouth and prove yourself a fool....put it in writing.

It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out, the uglier everything seems.

No and No. When it gets cold I drink glögg. Nothing beats a mug filled with warm, spiced red wine with a splash (or two) of rum in it in front of the fireplace when it's cold outside. :P

  1. no--we like to avoid icing drinks (unless it is absolutely necessary for chilling the drink) for two reasons:
    • restaurants can (and do) "stiff" on the quantity of drink by putting much ice
    • when the ice melts, it dilutes the drink
  2. other (don't take booze)

no i hate ice in my soda. i leave them in the fridge and drink them cold. i hate it when i go somewhere and they put half the cup with ice and half with soda, pisses me off.

no problem with ice in water, though, but i prefer to drink water that's in the fridge than use ice.

it's an american thing this icing obsession. in brazil when they bring you soda or water it's cold already
