A: Coca-cola B: Tabasco sauce
C: Iced tea D: Coffee

Answer

C: Iced tea

I love these. I would drink a half gallon every day if it weren't for the sugar content all the time and the caffeine content after about 2 p.m. or so. My favorite lunch spot with SteelersFan has one of those dispensers where I can make my own with all the ice I want. We go there about once a week.
