i don't drink any kind of fancy drink. i maybe add a little lemon or lime to my tea, but otherwise nothing. no sweetener. no milk. nothing.
i'll drink it hot in small doses, but large quantities are always consumed over ice. this is just my own trip though, some "manly virtues" kind of nonsense i got stuck on years ago. i once read something about how people who slept on beds were "soft" so i slept on the floor for 5 years. when i was young and i would travel, i'd never stay at a "decent" hotel or motel, not even something like a red roof or super eight. too fancy! i'd seek out some ridiculous flop house that the salvation army wouldn't even consider using. i thought the greatest place i ever stayed was the pioneer hotel in cheyenne. loaded with drunken and derelict cowboys and indians. it just screamed personality. as a yahoo reviewer writes: The Pioneer Hotel is a filthy, halfway house; full of cockroaches and yes, it's unrenovated. This means the halls smell of urine, the shared bathroom on each floor remains uncleaned and the wall-paper and plaster are falling away from the walls and ceiling. Do yourself a favor, stay anywhere in town but here. No matter how cheap it is, it isn't worth it. today i am mostly ruined when it comes to lodging. i think those fancy beds and pillows they have at the courtyard are to die for. doubletree also has something similar. my pioneer hotel days are surely behind me and i sleep in bed, but i still retain taking my coffee or tea black with no sweetener.
