I am a big tea drinker and never craved Earl Grey. I have tasted it only once and it's like dishwater. However, that said....back on topic....:smileywink:

As much as I like Sir Patrick Stewart as a really fine actor, I could never truly believe in him as a Captain of the Starship Enterprise. No true captain would entertain Earl Grey tea....make it so!!


What would your Captain drink then @jonsie? grin

I was going to mention that's rum, so not very appropriate for consuming when on duty on a star ship! But then I remembered if they replicate it, it doesn't include the effects. If I got it correctly.

Very good point re Synthohol not having the same adverse (depending on your perspective) effects as the real stuff. Begs the question, though, why Tom Paris...or rather an alien inhabiting his body and pretending to be him, was given quite a dressing down by Captain Janeway for drinking on duty. The evidence she offered to support this was the replicator logs showing him replicating alcoholic beverages, which surely shouldn't have affected him? Hmm...

I think Synthohol was the alternative with no side effects but you could still replicate the real stuff if you fancied a tipple. wink
