What do hot drinks do you take other than tea and coffee?

[cave_dweller]

Hot chocolate, don't do herbal/pine/decaf nonsense, waste of fuel making the horrid stuff(s).

Wot he said.

 

[Scots_Charles_River]

I had one of the 'all in one' nescafe sahets with coffe and latte and a syrup. Quite nice.

 

[spoony]

I got some hot berry tea, comes in powder form just add hot water

Meadowsweet is still in flower right now. It has an almond flavour and is supposed to be an anti inflamatory. You can pick and brew or dryout first. It is usually found by canal banks.

I suppose just once in a while I get fed up with carting milk, tea bags sugar and just want to simply add water and relax.

When I was touring Australia a few years back I had the same problem. I decided to force myself to drink my tea black, without sugar - It was better than having it with UHT milk Now I can't drink it any other way All I need to carry with me in terms of supplies is a bag of tea bags.

Quite the combo that.....

 

[santaman2000]

Hot chocolate with a dash of cayenne pepper.

 

[Teepee]

Cocoa, ground cinnamon, milk powder and a little coffee whitener.

The cayenne pepper sounds good Santa, I'll have a go at that.

 

[birdbrain57]

Chicken oxo with loads of salt and pepper.

 

[Poacher]

I would have to go with the ratpack hot chocolate. The memories of it alone are great!

 

[satosato]

I love milo and brovil, don't need milk for that .

 

[rik_uk3]

Mint tea. Good flavour (often, fruit/herbal teas smell great but disappoint in taste) and you can add a bit of honey if you need the energy.

If you find fresh mint - even better!

This is the only mint tea I'd drink

I would take if I could find them the old 24hr rat packs from the late 70's early 80's all tins but man they where great, processed cheese, bacon grill, spangles, you name it all the stuff you needed eat it cold or hot, plus side to those rats where you only needed water for drinks and at same time cook your food now days you need bucket loads of water, call me old fashion but boil in bag yuck, give me tins and well, whoo hoo.

Ginger tea, purchased from Asian food shops. Only pure ginger & honey granules in single foil bags, all you need is hot water, lovely.

This one for instance..............http://www.asianaltd.com/product.asp?P_ID=1095

It does have a good 'kick' and does not have the weak taste that I've always found with herbal teas.

 

[prescottr]

I love hot chocolate and gives you a good boost at the start of the day. I am a big coffee lover but there are just those days when you would want to relax a little bit more, which hot choco helps me with.

I also drink hot water with a squeeze of lemon to alleviate stress, though you might consider it as some form of tea already.

 

[Bucketosudz]

Warm Tang! or similar powdered Citrus Drink? Pre-fill some Tapioca/Malt Straws with the powder, they store well and can be re-sealed if necessary.

Beef or Chicken Bouillon is very affordable and can be packaged separately. We hardly ever use a full spice packet when making Ramen noodles, it also makes a nice brothy drink and can be
stored as aforementioned also. The straws also make decent fire lighting material in a pinch as well.

 

[R.Lewis]

I take Green tea, Miso soup and Oxo cubes. I like The Oxo made with a little Cayenne Pepper added so that too is in my brew kit.

 

[outdoorpaddy]

It's gotta be Twinnings Lady Grey or Earl Grey for me. I drink it black, it has a nice lemon-ish taste to it. Sometimes I drink hot chocolate but it is bigger and bulkier
and generally not as nice IMO. You should try the Twinnings tea selection, there's a lot of good ones in that.
