They really prefer to be sick than put up with a little metallic taste?!?!?  
Personally I like the taste.

One alternative is to spray it -- into their faces, noses, eyes, mouth (have 
them inhale it), head, back, anywhere on the body really.  It will get absorbed 
through the skin.  They can hold some in their mouths for a minute or two, and 
then spit it out, and quick take a drink of something sweet.

I also know people who won't take it because it doesn't taste sweet.  They 
don't like beer either, so what does that tell you?  :-)

Subject: CS>Help me get my daughter and wife to take CS



Here's my problem.  My daughter has the flu and my wife is coming down with a 
cold.

Neither one will drink the CS because they have drunk it before and hate the 
metallic taste.  i really don't notice much taste, it just seems a little flat 
to me, so no big deal for me.

My daughter tried mixing it with Gatorade once, but was really upset with me 
because I 'ruined' perfectly good Gatorade and it tasted gross.

Any suggestions on how to make it more palatable to finicky family members?
