Title: What's your favourite beverage
Post by: SSH on Tue 22/02/2005 09:19:12
Well, its about due for another silly "what's your favourite" thread, so...

What's your favourite beverage? If I want something warm, I love ruch, black coffee. For cold, I'd probably do with Fanta lemon, or Irn Bru, or maybe Rubicon Exotic Guava, but I dunno if they still do that.

Calpis! It sounds like "Cow piss", and it's a milk based non-carbonated soft drink ^_^

When I'm in the US, I drink a lot of Root Beer - lots of IBC and Henry Weinhard's. When I'm in Japan, I usually drink a lot of this stuff called Amino Supli (http://www.beverage.co.jp/aminosupli/cm.html), which is basically like an amino suppliment sports drink that tastes great and horrible all at the same time. I'm not entirely sure how it works, but I drink it and go 'Man, this stuff is bad', but just can't stop 'coz despite tasting bad, it appeals to me. I also totally agree with Kinoko, Calpis is great.

Woohoo! Someone else likes Calpis ^_^

Oh, how silly of me, I forgot to mention Bundaburg ginger beer! I've been drinking it all week. Now it's all gone and I feel like I'm going to go a little ... crazy... without it.

Funnily enough I did mean non-alchoholic beverages, even though I didn't say that, and everyone is either tee-total or has stuck to that.

And JetXL, I wasn't claiming to be original  :P

Definitely coffee.  I drink almost primarily coffee and water.  For a more "social" beverage, I like a good White Russian, Long Island Iced Tea, Rum and Coke, or Vodka Sour.

Re-reading the non-alcoholic statement, coffee.. oh.. and water.

Calpis is a bit ho hum. Not bad but.... And the kinds with distilled sake are a bit stupid, but hey, all the lolly water + distilled sake are stupid.

Still, it's better than the dumb drink where you have to push the marble in. Guess the Japanese really like packaging.

I sorta have a soft spot for the iced milk teas that come in cans, even the sweetened milk green tea, which every part of my sense tells me should be awful.


But otherwise, green tea, dark beer, milk, guava juice, water.

My favorite beverages would have to be pop (or soda for some people).  It seems like that's all i drink.  I'm talking about anything from Coke & Pepsi to Mountain Dew and Hawaiian Punch.  I always take a 2 litre of pop with me into work every morning.

People tell me to drink water, but i need something with flavor.  I could always drink flavored water, which i like, but i prefer my carbonated beverages.

It's boring, but I really love water. I drink about three or four pints of the stuff a day. Milk is great also. I truly am the proverbial Captain Spartan.

Mmm... I'm a big tea drinker. Specifically, Twinnings Earl Grey, taken with a generous dollop of honey. When I'm eating out, though, I'll usually get Red Rose double double.

For those of you who don't speak Canadian, Red Rose is a brand of tea, and double double is having a warm beverage, usually coffee, with two cream, two sugar.

I can tell you what is not my favorite... Moxie.

Black-licorice Coke with extra black licorice that runs you over with a truck after every sip. Proudly exported from Maine, and other New England states.

Blech.Ã,  :P

My favourite beverage would probably have to be honeydew or strawberry-kiwi bubble tea.

(http://www.fuzionbubbletea.com/images/fuzion_drinks.gif)

For those of you who aren't familiar with bubble tea, it's a popular Asian beverage consisting of iced tea, milk and tapioca pearls (the small black balls at the bottom). Flavours for this drink include mango, champagne, coffee, and even cereal-tasting bubble tea.

Whatever the flavour, it's damn good. :D

On a hot summer day, I would drink either iced tea or a cold beer.
When its cold, i'd get some coffee.

Well,  I feel like a club-goin' girl here, but I did the Jager-bombs.

Basically, you fill a pint glass half-full with RED BULL, then pour a shot of Jagermeister.  Drop the shotglass of Jager in the RED BULL and drink it down quickly.

I also enjoy Gin and Tonic.  But mostly, I'm drinking Labatt Blue Light.  It's a beer from Canada that's rather popular here in Upstate New York.

As far as non-alcoholic drinks, I love me some Coca-Cola from time to time.  Code Red Mountain Dew if I'm feeling in the mood for Sugar.  I love Grape soda, I dunno why.  I also like Strawberry Flavoured Milk.  Hmm.... I like tea, too.  I drink an immense amount of tea for an American.  Everyone here drinks (bad) coffee. 

Ya know, I think I just like fluids.

Fanta Lemon?

Lucky for you guys who get that. We only get Fanta Grape and Fanta Orange over here.
My favorite non-alcoholic beverage? The caramel milkshakes over at the local Milky Lane.

I tend to like different beverages at different times of the day. First thing in the morning, its pure orange juice, then in the afternoon hot, milky tea. Fizzy pop with dinner (ginger ale for preference), and if I'm not up early the next day, a glass or two of red wine in the evening. Course, I drink several glass of water in between times, and it has to be tap water - filtered crap is tasteless, I like the impurities!:P When out drinking with my mates, its usually cider in the afternoon, and alchopops at night. Yup, I think that covers everything!

I love my water, but I do drink a lot of pop. I have a lot of Coke, Diet Dr Pepper, and Sprite. When I'm feeling lucky, I'll go buy a Rockstar, but those are usually bad to me. :)

I don't know why but i hate pop..the only one i'll drink is root beer or an occasional coke

Water is good, I drink a lot but I also walk about 25km a day.

I drink too much Coke, Vanilla Coke and Pepsi, but I guess it's my caffeine fix as I'm not a big fan of Coffee or Tea. It's a shame they took the coke out of coke, I often wonder what the best selling product is that doesn't contain any sort of drug.

My Home Brew, Coopers, Leffe, Guinness and other assorted beers are a great treat.

I'm big on milk (though I drink the stuff like there's no tomorrow, I'm beginning to believe I may be lactose intolerant) and water. I also like iced tea (lemon) and I'm a big fan of Green Apple flavoured Jones Soda (or Green Apple flavoured President's Choice pop... they're pretty much the same).

As far as Fanta contests go, we get Fanta Orange Spider and Spider Strawberry spider. A spider is soft drink with icecream in it.

Hence, these drinks are meant to taste like orange with choc ice cream etc.


They taste horrible.

I like Fanta Toilet-Cleaner Edition (aka. Fanta Shokata ) a lot.

Well, Vodka with Coke is good too. And nothing beats a good hot cup of tea.

I like water. It's what I usually drink unless I have a very good reason to drink something else. Milk is good, too, though. And though I often avoid soft drinks, good old Fanta (orange--anything else is very alien) is my favourite.

I don't drink coffee, and I dislike most kinds of tea, though chai is alright.
