Happy experimenting!

It was a beautiful day and there was no sign of thoughts about old age and a glass of water. I was going to the auto center, where my mother was also going with my four-year-old son Timur. We didn’t see him for two weeks while he was visiting his grandmother in another city, and we missed him terribly. Having left my mother's car for servicing, we went together to the nearest shopping center to have a snack. While chatting, I didn’t notice that the auto center’s closing time was already very close. I think, damn, I need to go downstairs for groceries. She handed the keys to her car to her mother and son and quickly ran to the grocery store on the first floor. I had 15 minutes. Already at the checkout, I realized that I had forgotten to take drinking water, and I was terribly thirsty. Okay, I’ll drink in the car, I always pour water into my favorite sports bottle. Damn, I forgot to pour it. Well, it’s okay, I didn’t forget to pour water into Timur’s sports bottle (he has his own personal one).

I run into the car and sit down. The tongue is stuck to the roof of the mouth, and it is almost impossible to speak due to the dry mouth. I turn to the baby and say:

- Son, give me some water to drink.
- Mom, this is my bottle, drink from yours.
- I forgot to pour myself.
- But you always pour it.
- I forgot.
- Well, you can drink at home.

What a cheeky little guy, if I could have a drink at home, I wouldn’t ask. But I’m almost dying of thirst, such an asshole. My mother has already intervened:

- Timur! Give mother a drink.

I always feel strange when my mother calls me mother. But it sounded convincing. And guess what, the kid was adamant.

- This is actually my bottle.
- Son, I know this is your bottle. Well, give me at least a sip.

He hands me the bottle, I take an impressive (according to the child) sip, using a third of the liquid. I return it to him. He begins to get indignant:

– You almost drank all the water.
- Well, where did I drink all the water, look, more than half is left.

We drove quietly and quickly to the auto center, about 20 minutes. Mom said that she had a large bottle of water in her car, which I was incredibly happy about. And of course, she joked that her son wouldn’t give him a glass of water before he died. We're approaching. Mom went to pick up the car. And then the child begins to sob wildly, washing himself with some endless stream of tears. For a second I thought something had bitten him. I ask what happened. And he told me:

“I didn’t want to give you my water, but I did.” But I didn’t want to. And for some reason I gave it away. Now I don't have enough water. AAAAAA.

To say that I was angry at that second would be an understatement. That is, he drove in the car in silence for 20 minutes, thought about his action and came to the conclusion that he shared in vain. Well, naturally, he was urgently given a lecture on the topic of greed, the ability to share with one’s neighbor in difficult times. And in general! He simply didn’t want to drink, which I also loudly drew the attention of this petty villain. It seems to have calmed down. We arrived home. He came out with his bottle, from which he never took a sip. I say: “Well, look, you didn’t even drink.” “Well, yes, well, yes,” Timur mumbled in response to me. - I was wrong". Mother, in the form of me, solemnly calmed down and we went into the apartment. He left the bottle in the corridor. Everyone went to dinner. For dessert, the child had raspberries, packaged in a small square container weighing 250 grams. Can you already guess why I described the volume in such detail? I tell my son:

I really ate mine and didn’t want it anymore, but the sediment, you know, remained. It was urgently necessary to check the percentage of greed remaining in the child.

- Well, give me at least one berry.
– Mom, you know, I was just thinking about greed.

Well, thank God, what a smart baby I have, I thought. It was an excellent lecture, so I gave it. Oh yes I am, oh yes I am a teacher-educator. But these thoughts were quickly interrupted:

-You were right, greed is bad. Run into the corridor, there is a bottle there, drink some water. “You wanted it,” Timur said, increasing the rate of absorption of raspberries.

Therefore, dear mothers, if you decide to have a child for the sake of a glass of water in old age, it is not a fact that you will receive it at the right time for you. Well, in general, that you will receive something other than the tender and selfless love of the baby. The main thing is that you don’t want to drink at an inconvenient moment.

P.S. I really wanted to tell this little story. We very often worry and worry when children do strange things, behave somehow differently, or react in a peculiar way. You should only worry if this happens systematically (throwing you on the floor in a store, loud tantrums, etc.). But we, as adults, must learn to understand and accept our kids. Especially the fact that children grow and their nervous system undergoes changes.

The coming winter with its frosts and snow is not a reason to neglect your drinking regime. The body needs water every day, regardless of the weather outside. And one of the best ways to quench your thirst profitably is delicious water at home.

Forever with water

In autumn and especially in winter, you should never reduce your water consumption. Just because we don't feel thirsty doesn't mean we don't need water. A deficiency causes skin to peel, nails to break, and hair to fall out. Add to this the harmful effects of heating, low humidity in the house, sudden changes in temperature, and it becomes obvious that drinking a lot of water every day is necessary for health. Of course, this amount depends on individual characteristics, but on average the daily norm is 6–8 glasses. Moreover, we are talking specifically about drinking water, and not about tea, coffee, juices and other drinks.

Cold vs cold

Oddly enough, doctors recommend drinking chilled water now, since in this form it is better absorbed by the body. It is also important to remember a simple truth: purified water is the key to a tasty drink. You can find it in supermarkets or filter tap water. And it’s easy to get it at home. To do this, pour water into a container, put it in the freezer for several hours, then let it thaw. Harmful impurities will settle to the bottom, and you will only have to carefully drain the clean liquid. You can make your water even tastier with your own hands by adding just a few ingredients that you probably have at home.

Citrus immunity

One of these components is any fruit, with the possible exception of banana and avocado. The main thing is that the fruits are juicy and ripe. Let's start by making delicious water with lemon and other citrus fruits. Take an orange, a lemon and a lime, cut them into circles with zest. Knead them slightly, pour 2 liters of water in a jug with a lid and put them in the refrigerator. The drink should spend a day there so that the citrus fruits release the maximum amount of useful elements. The most important of them, of course, is vitamin C, which the body needs especially urgently now. You can strain the water or drink it with pieces of citrus fruit. By the way, it’s convenient to take it with you to work or for a walk.

Berry carnival

with wild berries it turns out no less tasty. For this recipe, we will need frozen berries, which we prudently prepared in the summer. Take 100 g of blackberries, raspberries and blueberries, lightly mash them with a fork and pour in the juice of 2 limes; you can also put a few wedges of lime in the water. You can make the same healthy water with fresh fruit. Pour the mixture into 2 liters of water and, if desired, add 3-4 sage leaves. It will give the drink refined notes and a pleasant aroma. Let it sit in the refrigerator for 10–12 hours, and you can treat it to your loved ones. Children will especially love this berry water recipe, so put a bottle of it in their backpack when packing for school.

Pineapple lightness

Fans of diets will be pleased to know that tasty water is perfect for losing weight. Pineapple water will achieve impressive results. Cut 200 g of fresh pineapple pulp into cubes. Canned fruits are not suitable because they contain a lot of sugar. Chop a small bunch of mint and mash it in a mortar and masher. Combine the greens with pineapple in a jug, pour in 1.5 liters of water and put in the refrigerator overnight. Remember that tasty water is stored for no longer than 3 days, so there is no point in preparing it for future use. With regular use, pineapple water will remove toxins, and along with them, excess weight will go away.

Apple health

Delicious drinking water with an apple will also help you get rid of unwanted kilograms, and at the same time improve your metabolism. Grate a small peeled apple, preferably a sour one. Add ½ tsp to it. grated ginger root, sprinkle with ¼ tsp. ground cinnamon and mix well. Pour this mixture into a liter of hot water at a temperature of 90 °C and brew it like regular tea. For a richer aroma, you can add a few basil or rosemary leaves. Cool the apple water and put it in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours. Before drinking, you can strain the water and add slices of fresh apples to it. Drink it on an empty stomach every morning, and good health will be ensured for the whole family.

Cucumber cheerfulness

Some recipes pair the delicious fruit water with watery vegetables such as cucumber. Take 4 cucumbers: grate 2 of them on a fine grater with peel, cut the other 2 into circles. Cut 2 lemons with zest into the same circles. We divide the middle bunch of mint into leaves, and mash the branches in a mortar. Place all the ingredients in the bottom of the jug, fill them with a liter of water and put them in the refrigerator for 2 hours. This drink is often used for short-term detox diets. If you love to exercise, be sure to take a bottle of cucumber water with you. It will quench your thirst during workouts and help you quickly restore strength after them.

As you can see, preparing delicious water with fruits and berries will not take much time and effort. You can easily come up with new recipes yourself to please your loved ones with pleasant and unexpected combinations.

Not all people celebrate New Year and Christmas in restaurants and bars. Many people stay at home - and rightly so: these holidays are the most homely of all, aren’t they?

But you want to treat those who come no less beautifully and dignified than when visiting an elite drinking establishment. This problem can be solved, and we have something to advise you.

1. Scotch on the rocks cocktail glass

A massive, low glass is very suitable for heavy alcohol - whiskey and various cocktails based on scotch. A tumbler glass is something that your guests will love and that will give undiluted alcohol (just without ice!) a special masculine relish. Freeze for a couple of moments with this glass in a thoughtful pose - and some pretty friend will certainly pay attention to you.

2. Cocktail glass Aperol spritz

The standard capacity of this tall glass, also called a highball, is from 225 to 340 ml. Its upper diameter is slightly larger than the lower one. Use this glassware for iced drinks. At the same time, do not forget that in addition to ice there should also be the drink itself.

3. For Barolo wine (red wines)

Glasses for red wines can be different in volume, but always spherical in shape. This shape is necessary to easily warm the drink in the palms before drinking, and also so that the wine can freely and in all its glory convey its aroma.

4. For the French 75 cocktail

A flute glass, which is used for champagne, is best suited for this.

5. For gin and martini

The ideal option is a medium-sized cone-shaped martini glass with a high stem. The wide top ensures that the aromatic drink is close to the drinker's nose. Don't forget the ice cubes and olives.

6. For Calvados

A snifter is a glass with a voluminous round bowl on a short stem. It also makes good cognac or brandy. The shape fits perfectly into the warm human palm. Aesthetically it looks great in the hand of a serious, thoughtful man who considers himself a connoisseur of drinks.

7. Shaker for whiskey cocktail with lemon juice

In this case, you can use either a traditional classic cocktail shaker or a Boston shaker.
