Cold Alcohol

I recently discovered a new cold/flu fighter called Airborne.  Statistics show that taking this (essentially train loads of vitamin C and Zinc) can significantly reduce the recovery time so, I've been giving it a try.  It dissolves in water and tastes allright.  Who knows if it really works but then the placebo effect would still be enough for me.

More interestingly, I also enjoy a mixed drink from time to time.  These usually include vodka, soda, and some kind of fruit juice to top it off.  Since Airborne comes in orange and lemon/lime flavors and has a little fizziness (when dissolved in water), it occurred to me to use it for the base of my mixed drink.  It's fabulous!  If you feel fine and just want to buck up on some vitamin C  I  still recommend it.  Call it the "Table air Borne".  Here's how to make one:
      
        Fill glass with 1/2 cup of warm water
        Drop in 1 Airborne tablet and let it dissolve completely
        Add 1 1/2 - 2 oz of vodka
        Top off with juice of choice - grape or apple work well
