Today has been such a lame-bot.
Nobody's feeling it.

Mike: Does "passion" iced tea have caffeine?

Anonymous coworker: I don't think so. Pretty sure that one is herbal.

Mike: Hippies...

But have I mentioned I love iced tea now? :)

I did want to rush home, and I did want to jump someone when I got home, but I don't know that the tea had anything to do with that. :)

PTL, peut-être?

It looks like my favourite *$ drink, shaken passion fruit tea lemonade (PTL), which I live on in huge quantities. Because I am adverse to sweet things and a sourpuss, I have it unsweetened and I think it tastes much better that way. Less like Kool-Aid, Oh Yeah.

I have no idea why passion fruit tea would be red. I've only every seen orange and yellowy passion fruit bits. Also, passion fruit is generally vile. It is of course named for the Passion of the Christ, so those who go on about the aphrodisiac qualities are in for a very heavy sm scene. Perhaps someone should warn them.

A number of my Murcan friends seem fond of the stuff; I have yet been unable to sell its delectable flavour on anyone here in Canukistan, but my cublet, although he still prefers (also unsweetened) green tea lemonade.

A cute barrista with whom I flirt suggested combining the two, which is nice and refreshing, but I prefer it oldschool PTL. For the win.

Of course here in Montréal we order in (Joual) French: Shprens un venti limonade au thé passion, sans sucre, s'il vous plaît. ESPECIALLY if the barristas are anglophones; it is simply more fun that way.
