Presenter: Rich Harris, Director Emeritus of Disability Services at Ball State University, and history aficionado

Description: Here’s a hint: Three contain alcohol and three have caffeine. Water of course is the basis of all life. But water is not always safe/available to drink or needs to be altered for various reasons. Harris will discuss the development and importance of these drinks, several of which go back thousands of years. He will relate the most interesting facets about each.
