Default This is some nasty stuff!

I am about to chug my 10 oz bottle of magnesium citrate... SURGERY IS FIRST THING IN THE MORNING!!!!! Wahoo!
But to get there, I have to chug this stuff. I took a small taste. It's cherry flavored. It's really sour and has a bad after taste!

Any suggestions on the best way to get this stuff down??

That sh*t is the devil. I had to drink two bottles 2 days prior to surgery. It was lemon flavor. I just gagged. Good luck with it

Thanks ladies!
It was disgusting, but it's all down.
I had to add some water to it to stop gagging from the sourness.
Of course, that made more to drink, but I was able to get it down...
My poor tummy feels so full now!
I have not had that much stuff crammed down it in a while!

Well, thanks for the suggestions!
Now, it's time to deal with the effects of this nasty drink!

Tomorrow I will be on the losing side!!!!
Whoo Hoo!!
