It's a mild mix of chamomile and spearmint...caffeine free.

Gatorade used to taste better years ago. it's basically just sugar water now. College kids used to add vodka to it for a quick drunk. But I don't recommend that.

I drink it on the golf course or when I want something other than water, but I only stick to "orange" or "green"..the rest taste terrible. I guess "green" is supposed to be Lemon-Lime and "orange" is, well, Orange.

I think it was Quaker Oats that way overpaid for Snapple and tried to make it their Premier Brand over Gatorade.

Some time later, Snapple completely fizzled and Gatorade became the front runner once again. Quaker sold the brand at a major loss. Because of some twisted marketing plan at the time, the same distributors still carry both. But the "hot" drink around these parts is bottled water. A friend owns the Evans Coffee Company....an old name around here for bulk Institutional sales. A year or two ago he branched into water. Everywhere he looked, people were walking down the street with bottled water, drinking it on the course, by the pool,

I even have a water cooler in the kitchen, had it for years.

I don't know if you have Poland Spring in Texas, but that's a label that's hard to come by at this time of year.....they just run out and replace it with other water. The only people that maintain supply are the people who buy bulk or the large water bottles.

Anyway, I recall that Tea does relax you and get you drowsy so it may be worth trying.
