Did you ever enjoy a drink with lots of ice cubes in it?What was your feeling while drinking it?
Hmm...
- it refreshes my body
- it keeps me cool on a hot day
- simply delicious
- and so on
What was your feeling after you finished the glass of your chosen drink?
Too less?
So many ice cubes left?
Still thirsty - Shall i wait until the ice cube turn into water?
If you look how many ice cubes restaurants and fast food chains put in your favorite drink, you can see very fast how less worth the spent money was (if you don't get directly a bottle + a glass with ice like in the picture above).
Up to 50% of the content of your drink is pure water/ice cubes.
In case you want to save money ask the next time in your restaurant
- for a bottle + separate glass with ice cubes
- for less ice cubes in your drink
- or for no ice cubes in your drink
I'll go now for my own Ice Tea, bye bye!
This is what I always do when I get my favorite drink in a restaurant. It should be either "no ice" or "less ice" please... :D
ReplyDeletehow are you? I'm here for a weekend visit. keep in touch :)
ReplyDeleteIn some places, we ask them for a separate glass of ice. When I buy coke at fast foods I also tell them to put less ice.
ReplyDeleteGreat tip. I always ask for my drink without ice so I get more Coke. I didn't realise some places charge more :-(
ReplyDeleteI sneak my own soda into the place. Then I ask for a glass of ice for my sore throat. Then when nobody is looking I pour myself a cool refreshing drink.
ReplyDeleteThat is a great money saving tip. Restaurants and coffee houses charge us exorbitant fees for an iced drink and yet only 50% of it is ice water.
ReplyDeleteMaybe we should avoid ordering drinks to go along with our food next time.
