Ice water, coffee, and in the dog days of summer, mint iced tea.
I like a slice of apple occasionally between blends. And, with my just before bed, heart attack smoke of the strongest blends, I like to have some of those small Hershey bars with almonds, like the Halloween sized ones. The sugar knocks the "overdose feeling" off for me.

People always say they like a smokey scotch when they smoke something, I find this kinda silly.

Do you ask for a skirt steak on the side of your porterhouse?

I like to pair my smoke with my drink, there are many combinations I really like:

Black coffee with an aromatic;

Coffee with milk with a Va/Per or Virginia; and, my favorite,

Soda with English blends.

Sometimes I work in orange slices too with Englishes but generally I don't like having "food" in my mouth when I'm smoking.

But these are all personal preferences, yada yada yada, your mileage may vary and all that.

A substantial meal and good hydration (whatever the carrier for the water may be) improve the smoking experience. Good beer and good wine sometimes contend with the complexity of a pipe blend, but that depends on the blend, and likewise with coffee. Ice water is usually the best for me, if I am paying attention to the flavors in the blend. I love tea but can't do it, or only rarely, because of kidney stones.
