OMG AC you just reminded me of the BEST drink! Check this out:
Refreshing Mojitos by the Pitcher
I'm not advocating these as IBS safe, but I've made them numerous times and as long as I'm having a good spell IBS-wise and don't have too much I've never had a problem with them. They're just a type of Cuban hard lemonade, and they're sooooo tasty.
NOTE: You might want to stir it to take the fizz out of the club soda since carbonation isn't such a good thing.

Since you guys are talkin about alcohol I was wondering if any of you have ever done ok with tequila? I dont really like things like Jack Daniels and Vodka but I dont mind tequila. I miss partying every once in awhile and would really love to try it again sometime!

Oooh, Kree, those sound great! Next time limes are on sale at the store, I'll have to figure out whether I'm in a ginger mood or a mint mood...

Citrus is trouble for those of us with GERD because it's so acid. For IBS in general, it's one of those foods that we need to eat for good health but MUST be combined with soluble fiber. So a nice glass of lemonade (not too cold and made with sugar not equal) with a half a plain bagel or several pretzels would be a lovely summertime snack! Hmm, you've inspired me! It's in the 80's here today, lemonade may be just the ticket! (As long as I don't have too much -- I have GERD!!)
