Make up a pot at night and you'll be set for the next day. Add ice and use whatever else you want.
Me? Hot or iced coffee with liquid sucralose and a bit of cream. ONE glass of Canada Dry Diet Ginger Ale with my dinner. Hot tea for British murder mysteries at night (it just seems appropriate then).
