Your favourite drink

[Bill D (wwh)]

Now that the tea-making poll has run awhile, I thought it might be interesting to see what people's favourite drinks are. Feel free to post and elaborate on your choice.

I'm with you! I make my own wine so there's a lot to drink. You need one of those big fat straws that they use for slushies...about 4cm in diameter.

The weekend is here...grab the corkscrew and let's go!

[Tiger-Eyes]

Home made Hot Chocolate has got to be my Fav drink :D
though the calories force me to enjoy it only occasionaly :(

Next on the list would be real coffee with tia maria

Note to self (Must try alcohol with hot choc any ideas anyone) :lol:

everyday is tea or coffee <_<

[The Wombles]

Not only does the caffine drip do it for me, it also scares the Salesmen that visit me at work. One complained that he got the shakes and couldn&#39;t sleep ........ and never came back again :D

Brandy is great in hot choc. So is anything like Baileys, Dooleys, all the other cream ones etc.

However gin really doesn&#39;t work.

[Alice Band]

Give.me.coffee.....

Although a nice glass of red wine would be nice too :)

[nobbynobbs]

alcohol with choc... well what can&#39;t you put with it would be quicker. think liquor choccies&#33;&#33;&#33;

your own bounty bar with malibu
whiskey might be a little harsh...
but brandy would get my vote.


and when can we all try the home made pea pod wine then guiderchachi? :lol:

[Mrs Blorenge]

I had to vote tea because that&#39;s what I drink mostly
PLUS
A glass of red wine most evenings
BUT
If I&#39;m out "socialising" it&#39;s cider
BUT
If it&#39;s "extreme socialising" it&#39;s vodka with... :huh: ... something.

[keehotee]

Gin is VERY good in lemon tea (real lemon tea - not Liptons), and vodka&#39;s quite good in clear coffee (bedouin style)(the coffee - not the vodka, silly)

[nobbynobbs]

and it&#39;s hard to beat a nice bottle of meths among friends :blink:

[Roving Rangies]

I drink a lot of soft drinks, but when out I perfere Champagne.

[cacherelle]

Hmmmm well I love White Zinfandel, but only the Sutter Home one................OMG it&#39;s fantastic&#33;

Oh and don&#39;t mind a good pink champagne either&#33; ;)

[nobbynobbs]

i&#39;d not turn down any good champagne chance would be a fine thing&#33;

j2o&#39;s are quite nice makes a change from water in pubs when i&#39;m driving. though you still have to go a long way to beat a nice cold ringwood best. ;)

[Bill D (wwh)]

Beer in the pub and whisky as a nightcap for me...&#33; Champagne, and indeed any fizzy alcoholic drink, is falling over juice for me since some big ops a few years ago, I&#39;m afraid&#33;

[Alice Band]

Mmmmmm Claret.....

I see wine is currently in the lead :D B)

[nobbynobbs]

i dread to ask what the noises were from&#33;&#33;&#33; :lol:

[geotrowel]

Real ale for me! I'm also rather partial to single male Scotch and a nice glass of Merlot. Not at the same time, though!

[T.R.a.M.P.]

...single male Scotch...
Oh er missus..!:p

[Mrs Blorenge]

A thread back from the dead!

Difficult to make a choice of only one because they're a mix of soft drinks and alcoholic ones. I voted for tea because that's my most frequent drink but for other 'social occasions' I usually drink wine


or sometimes cider




never beer/lager...




Sometimes vodka with something...




Grand Marnier is nice sometimes...




What about creme de menthe frapp&#233;?



Oh! and I like sloe gin....



<MrsB, with a sense of d&#233;ja vu, wanders off into an alcoholic daze...>

[Matrix]

Cider for me but it has to be good quality :cheers:

It has been known to influence my bidding on certain Ebay items though :rolleyes:

[ivanidea]

Like Mrs B, I have a difficult time choosing one item.

Mostly Rioja, some malt whisky and very rarely real farm house cider (locally, I can only buy the commercial pasteurised filtered tasteless sweetened alcoholic apple juice).

Can we have polls which allow multiple selections?

Ivan

[Watford Wobble]

Hendricks gin please. Watch with Deal or No Deal life don't get better than that.

[Mrs Blorenge]

I dunno. Some people are never satisfied. You'll want individual booths and pencils on strings next...



:p :lol:

:p :lol:

And don't forget some rubbers for when I change my mind :p :cheers: :beer:

Talking of Poles, just had some vodka from Poland. Very tasty :cool:

[Pharisee]

If I'm just socialising, then it's a pint of London Pride of something similar. Occasionally I'll enjoy a pint of Strongbow or a glass of Moondarra Shiraz. At home, on a cold winter's night, a glass of Irish whiskey... Jameson's for just slurping or if I have company then I might just bring out the Tullamore Dew.

I'm not so sure about the Strongbow or the Shiraz, but the rest is exactly, dare I say it, my cup of tea...! :cheers:

[The Hornet]

Mornings - 2 large mugs of fresh brewed coffee

At the pub on a Sunday Lunchtime, putting the world to rights - Spitfire/London Pride/Butty Bach/etc (i.e. Real Ale)

Pub quiz league nights - same as above!

Other times in the pub - same as above!!

Thirst quenching - Stowford Press/Knights/Dunkertons (i.e. Real Cider, and living in Herefordshire I'm spoilt for choice :beer:)

As an apereritif - Bombay Sapphire and tonic

With a meal or just for glugging - Most red wines (although I do tend to get into trouble on a certain forum if I have too much :ph34r:)

As a Nightcap - a good single malt

(I couldn't find a tick box for that lot so I just went with beer :D)

[garfiethecat]

Love a cup of really strong tea, which I drink too many cups of each day.

Mind you it was a job to choose between that and wine which I drink too many glasses of in the evening :D

[jacobite]

I drink tea through out the day, beer if I'm socializing, but there's nothing like a dram of 16yr old Lagavulin.

[markandlynn]

Just back from France still even with a rubbiosh pound saved over £1.50 per bottle

£54 return on the tunnel and its quick

[Rampton Broadmoore]

This week I have been mostly drinking Jaegermeister and tonic! :eek:
Weird, but I like it!!:D

Rampton.

[Predictable Bob]

:D

Red wine - preferably a decent Rhone or Chateauneuf du Pape if I have a sudden surplus funds

A decent pint of bitter works well too - Abbott, Gales HSB, London Pride or similar


:beer:

[martybartfast]

Must have missed this poll first time round, but have just voted. It's a difficult one 'cos what I fancy depends on the situation, sometimes it's tea or coffee, sometimes wine, sometimes bitter.

In the end I plumped for beer or lager.

[RuberyBlue]

Missed by me as well.....

Chilled white wine and an evening with the wife

RB

[Ryuchan]

well, i am one of the boring ones, and voted water.
nothing else has been as apt at the times i have drank it and went : hell yes lush!

[DrDick&Vick]

Southern Comfort for me, with lots of ice and more Southern Comfort. None of this adding coke or lemonade stuff.

[hazels]

I too missed this first time round...

I'm a complete Tea-a-holic, and until very recently hadn't drunk for about 3 years. Before that I was often seen aorund camping events clutching a bottle of Vodka, and although I HAVE been a friend of the Vodka bottle lately again, I LOVE red wine now!!

Still can't beat a good cuppa... solves every problem known to man! :applause:

[jpbarr]

without the coffee I would be a zombie :)
