unsweet tea by the gallons, with Stevia used for sweetener.

Good ol' water!
and some OJ, and some Gatorade...but mostly water.
Whatever's on tap....
I am trying to cut back on real coffee, so one cup of real the the rest is decaf. Also lots of water.
Sinc it is only 8:30AM I'm drinking coffee. At this afternoon's BBQ it'll be Stella Artois.
Drinking coffee right now, but last night was sipping on Woodword Reserve and smoking some Borkum Riff Bourbon Whiskey.
Coffee, It,s bloody cold here by the lake.
My drinks of the summer have been Ace Pear Cider and Shock Top Raspberry Wheat.

Turkish Coffee.
Now: Sweet Tea
Later: Maker's Mark
Later Later: Eagle Rare 10yr
coffee
Sierra Nevada Pale Ale while smoking GLP's Haddos in a Pohlmann. Watched the Red Sox beat the Tigers in the first game of a doubleheader. Go Sox!!!
Okocim Piwo. Not bad for a polish beer.
As we speak an AmberBock,......it's a decent lawn-mowing/car-washin' brew.
When it's hot outside,....water. And plenty of it.
Oh,....and GO DETROIT GO!
Right now, Rothaus Marzen Export: Eis Zapfle. Which is glorious when cold.
Mojito's with fresh mint from my herb garden.(151 rum)
it is now after 10:00PM and just got home from a party that featured Coors Light. So I can't say I've been drinking beer but now have a scotch in hand to get the taste of the Coors out of my mouth.
Shiner Bock .
It's 3:30 pm and I have the next 2 days off.
So I'm relaxing with an ice cold bottle of Anchor Steam.
Tonight I had a "Tequila y Sangria". (tr. tequila and blood)
That's a shot of Tequila and a spicy tomato juice chaser.

Have you ever had a "prairie fire"?
It's a shot of tequila with a dash of tobasco. In my neck of the woods it's usually a dare or birthday shot(I sometimes call them birthday candles) but I genuinely like them. The taste of tequila with a little heat? Yum!
Lawrence, do you take your coffee with cardamom?
Hmmm Assaad,
Never heard of it... I googled it, and I'm intrigued.
As for hot or spicy tequila drinks... tabasco is blase' when it comes to spicing up your "sangria"... I like to use Ground Zero Da Bomb... That'll get your attention.

I usually have a shot of tequila in a hollowed out jalapeño, which is set on fire to warm up the tequila and release some of the heat from the pepper into the drink... man those are good.
But, you have to be careful, when you light something that contains a highly flammable liquid, while holding it.
You eat the pepper of course after blowing it out and drinking the tequila.
Lawerence, I'm now going to have to try the tequila/jalapeno drink.
Currently drinking Sailor Jerry's Spice Rum and Diet Coke. I think I've had too many, but I'm not one to complain.
Lawrence, I thought you might since you said you were drinking Turkish Coffee. Personally, I drink Lebanese coffee (because I am Lebanese and grew up around it and also because it tastes the same and is a quicker, easier way to make it) and I always use cardamom.
Monday night I mixed some Jim Beam Red Stag with a little ginger ale to go with a bowl of Connoisseur's Choice. The mixture of ginger ale with the Black Cherry flavor of the Red Stag was great. Kind of surprised me, because I've never mixed Jim Beam with ginger ale before, and wasn't quite sure how it'd go. It turned out marvelous though, and made the Connoisseur's Choice taste even better.
Since my last unpleasant bout with pancreatitis, San Pelegrino with lime.
I'll take peace over excitement any day of the week.
I too am a Lebanese coffee fan. I wasn't aware that there was a difference between Turkish and Lebanese coffee. I have had both and they seem to be the same. I always use cardamom as well. My girl friend is Lebanese and laughed at me when I served her what I called Turkish coffee and told me it was Lebanese coffee. I just thought that basically any fine ground coffee cooked on a stove top was pretty much the same.
On the topic of the thread though, I am drinking a glass of iced water with 1 1/2 fingers of Glen Morangie Lasanta on the side.
Turkish coffee is the same coffee the preparation is just different. For Turkish you put the coffee in the water before it boils.
Appropriately, my second post to this forum occurs in this thread. I am enjoying a Janet's Brown Ale, which I brewed from Mike "Tasty" McDole's excellent recipe!
Seeing as I just started the work day, coffee.
And when the work day is almost over, more coffee.
Gatorade
Was until just now lying out on the grass in the sun smoking Larsen 2011 and drinking a cold apple cider, more specifically Kopparberg.
Warm(130 Degrees), Sake! "Now That's The Stuff"!
Coca Cola Zero with a splash of vanilla ,over crushed ice .
My beer is: Home - Yuengling Premium Light (blue label), Away - Yuengling Lager (draft preferred, it's on most taps in this region)
VO & Ginger ale or Seagrams Seltzer Water
Took a sip out of my wife's glass by mistake yesterday and got a big swig of Coors Light, ugh.....
Havana rum flavoured coffee. helps warm the bones.

So I got the OK from the Dr that the blood clots are gone. That means two fingers of George T Stagg are in my finger cutout highball glass. Thank you Mr Stagg, ambrosia. I paired this up with a small bowl of Baron's Mystery and wow, this stuff is good, more on that later.
Captain & Coke
A belt of Brandy here, before dinner.
Sweet water's Exodus Porter
unsweet tea by the gallons, with Stevia used for sweetener.
I like your style.
I drink quite a bit of tea and Yerba Maté, the organic fair trade stuff, amazing.
But I have been wanting another bottle of Ballentines Finest Scoth Whiskey recently, I might indulge sometime this month.
My preference is Johnnie Walker DOUBLE Black. Either straight, rocks or with Perrier. Great with a Balkan type smoke in a briar.
Sadly, mostly clear broth at the moment. Stomach bugs suck...

In the morning( for me that is around 11 am) I begin with either Mayorga !00% Organic Cafe Cubano or Starbucks French Roast or Cafe Du Monde coffee's. I then switch to Luzianne decaf iced tea until it is time for my adult libation. I will then take a couple of shots of my Tito Vodka( small batch out of Texas, 6 times refined) mix it with Schweppes diet tonic water and a splash of cranberry juice. This is my routine every day. I always have my one drink before dinner, once in a great while I will have two. I then switch back to the iced tea after dinner and until I go to bed. I always one of these drinks in my hand while I am smoking.
Today, Early Times, a bit of branch and 3 cubes. Not bad for a rail whisky.
Right at this moment, a glass of a Chilean organic Cabernet Sauvignon which a client/friend asked me to taste for her as I am a wine and beer judge as you would expect of someone who does what I do. I have a batch of limoncello that I need to taste, after a glass or two of water. I make limoncello and want to see if this batch rolls my socks up and down like its supposed to. A perfect summertime refresher drink for those of you who live in southern states - a shot of freezer cold limoncello at 120 proof will cool even the most overheated day. Think of lemon meringue pie without the meringuee and no crust, in liquid form with a solid alcohol kick! I've got to make up enough of it to last the whole summer as I age it for nearly 3 months before I bottle and this stuff is pretty popular when the weather turns warm up here. Liquid sunshine as one of my friends says!
Just finished a "Canadian", my after work bevy
A glass of Primitivo along side an Italian American staple...The fried peppers and eggs sandwich. Or as the old guys used to call it a sangaweech.
Having a glass of Scotch before a dinner of grilled chicken and oven baked brussel sprouts with bacon
vodka on the rocks
Strong black tea with milk and sugar. It's ten in the morning in December. First pipe of the day: Wessex Red Virginia Flake. Enough nicotine to help me recover from slow depletion during the night.
Going to switch to Rattrays Accountants Mixture and Vietnamese Coffee at lunch.
Cheap bar Scotch at the cocktail hour, and several types of tobacco, depending on bowl, bar customer density, mood, and which cigar-puffing drip sits next to me.
Smoking: it's a weapon of mass-distraction.
Disperses rabbits.
iced coffee for starters. At the end of the day Bacardi Rum (151) and Coke with a twist of lime to wind down the day.
Tonight is Fitzgerald's Larceny Bourbon. Nasty stuff, it has no complexity and is just flat. 92 proof so a bit of branch and 5 cubes.
OK so I dumped that swill out, boy it was nasty. Got a splash of The Speyside. A single malt that is smokey and a little sweet, a bit of branch to bring out the sweetness and 3 cubes. Nice.
Meade made from honey, maple syrup, blackberries, lemons, and pear preserves. Washes the Virginias down nicely.
Drinkin me some Brew Free or Die IPA from 21st amendment Brewery right now...I nice brew to end the night of smokin out on the porch with some buddies!!!
Mount Gay Rum over crushed ice with a splash of Perrier. (007 style
)
Johnny Walker Black and Double Black.
Creme Soda on the rocks The old cajun
cheap vodka. and rockstar. i dont know why
Grangestone 18yr old scotch with a touch of distilled water. Not too much at all though you'll ruin it.
So tonight is Jack Daniels Single Barrel Select. Not bad, just a tad sweet which the branch brings out, 3 cubes. Like all the other Jack's I have tried though it is a bit one denominational, no hidden flavors.
The second for tonight is knob Hill. Slightly sweet, spicy and a bit vanilla. Better than the Jack.
Tonight a straight up Scotch. The Macallan 18. Smokey cedar, cocoa, vanilla and slightly sweet tar at the end. A splash of branch a 3 cubes. Mmmmm
Second one for the night is Crown Royal, Black. Nice, sweet caramel, cocoa and vanilla, really nice. 3 cubes no branch.
Apple juice...and it's refreshing actually
