When I was young, before I came to the US, my father asked me to find alcohol in a grocery/convenience store.

He wanted to give me an impossible task, I was four years old.

I rushed to the fridge and took out a bottle of cold raspberry tea, and gave it to him. I then said "gotovo" which in english means "done."

I wouldn't say fire if there's no fire.

Later on the three varieties were banned in Bulgaria, and probably in the US, but I thought I would write it to entertain you to the best of my ability.

When people made these teas by putting fruit in hot water, essentially what you're making by cooling it quickly is a very low content alcoholic beverage.

At the time, because I was good at math, based on the way the tea looked I told my father that it has exactly 0.0835% alcohol in it.

There were three varieties, same as in every other country.

The three were:

Raspberry

Blueberry

Peach

Currently these, and a fourth which I forget the name of are still sold as hot tea.

You buy tea bags and boil them in water.

Some people like to make iced tea by doing this.

It's something that relaxes you in such a mild way that you don't notice it.

Something that used to be a kid's version of alcohol to our oblivious parents and producers in the 90's and many decades before that.

As this post is about alcohol I thought I would rate it as A.

Besides, a child doesn't have money, so there is no way they could do this, nor do they know how alcohol is made. Before I found the tea my father explained it to me, so it was easy for me to think up my own thought process.

The store clerk overheard us, and that's the story of how cold fruit teas were banned in Bulgaria in 1994.

I thought I would make a cheerful post, full of humor, with all the pain that's going on in my life and in the world.

Please don't delete my content as this is a fake internet, and don't delete this.

I wouldn't say fire if there's no fire. Take this for what it is, a slice of life moment.

This was also the partial precursor to thinking up the song Skandau - Boje, as part of my development. It's a song against drugs. (I noticed that all the other kids were drinking them.)
