Drink of choice?

[TCRanch]

Guess I better revise my answer because I thought fnfarms was asking about your alcoholic drink of choice. Soooooo, start off with a pot of coffee. Black and strong. Switch to orange juice before I head out for my morning rounds. At which point I grab a lemon-flavored water. Back home, iced coffee - just because. Switch to diet green tea, which segues into water the rest of the day. Until it's time for a glass a wine. Then back to water. I'm complicated!

When working outside all day in the east Texas heat & humidity: At least 1/2 to 1 gallon of cold water and 2 or 3 gatorades (20 oz.)…all of as cold as it will stay on ice in a cooler…and maybe a Coke for a treat at some point in the day…

don't drink much alcohol but when in the mood, I like Crown Royal - black, tequila sunrise, or several different vodka based drinks…I have a bit of a sweet tooth…had some apple cobbler flavored wine from a place in Fredericksburg once that was very tasty but I don't really care for wine for the most part…and of course, the state wine of Texas which is sweet iced tea

 

[gcreekrch]

Water, coffee, juice, ice tea, any kind of hot tea, Crown Royal, occasional Glenfiddich and beer that keeps my lunch cold before it warms up. Alcohol is not a daily thing most of the year but I like my 3 pm beer when I'm haying.

 

[Big Creek]

Coffee, water, and PBR..in that order.

Coffee, water and. Miller lite..in that order

 

[4hfarms]

Coffee, move cows, water, coffee. Lunch with cucumber or berry sometimes apple or pear water. At least a gallon, of whatever is in season, the rest of the day.

After hard days work I like A pair of COLD unfiltered wheat beer.
I don't work hard often.

.....and an occasional whisky now and again if occasion calls for it.

AM - Coffee
PM - Margarita

I've taken up drinking Tang when it's hot and I've been doing farm work. Tang was taken to the moon you know.

 

[TexasJerseyMilker]

For something different I mix up a Whisky Sour made with Old Crow, because I am an old crow.

Both drinks supply vitamin C from the lime juice and orange juice so I drink these to prevent scurvy.

 

[MurraysMutts]

Everyone likes a lil Tang every now and then!

I'm quite partial to a hurricane if made right. Cattlemens restaurant in okc does it right!

Roadhouse makes a good hurricane margarita. Most always have one or two with my dinner when I go there.

Mexican men invented the Margarita because straight tequila was too strong for women.

When I was a 20 year old my friend and I went on a trip to the far end of Mexico but not like tourists. We took the buses where you rode with country folk with chickens and goats. We stayed in the hotels where the natives stayed. The rooms were invariably laid out in a square with beautiful shady gardens and a fountain in the center.

One time we were in a small town and there was a big fiesta with music and fireworks. It was quite a party. We met several Americans standing on a street corner they were passing around a bottle of tequila. Of course I had to try it. Almost instantly I was drunk as a skunk, everything was hilarious and the twirling lights. I vaguely remember being carried back to the hotel over his shoulder like a sack of flour. Next, hugging the commode for several days. Tequila cured me from drinking for the next 5 years.

Black Coffee in the mornings, sweet tea for lunch (sweet enough that you can taste the diabetes in it), and diet coke or diet mountain dew for a refreshment. I drink a beer on occasion, maybe a 6 pack every couple or three months, sometimes I let that go for a while and catch up in one weekend. I have some really good ideas when I'm drinking, enough in one sitting to last a whole year.

I was referring to that but not the direction it went. lol

I don't drink pop, that's death in a bottle. I like water. Straight up, with ice, or with ice and whiskey. A cold beer on a hot afternoon. Coffee in the morning. Cold mornings coffee and Bailey's.
Tequila Collin's from time to time or a margarita. I'm not complicated, just have no use for pop.

Exact same here. I rarely drink a beer in the winter but generally drink a 6 pack a week in the summer, not all at the same time. I like to grill and drink about 3 beers while I'm grilling.

There is a soda I've found called Ollipop, it's not like a regular coke at all. It's loaded with prebiotics,probiotics,fiber and all kinds of vitamins and uses stevia and real fruit juice as a sweetener. There are several flavors, I've had Root Beer, Cream Soda, Grape, Orange Creme, Strawberry Vanilla, Vintage Cola. I like them all but Orange Creme is my favorite. They sell them on Amazon and our local Walmart has them in the produce section. I rarely drink regular cokes (we refer to every brand as a coke here in the south) because of how bad they are for you, but these Ollipops curb my craving.

 

[ClinchValley86]

Modelo or an IPA (Voodoo Ranger lately) if beer. Mandatory when I am in hay during dog days.

Hard to beat some good clear though. Gotta be good. Some of it can hurt ya.

Coffee and water otherwise. Occasional gatorade. Lightly sweatened tea is good too.

 

[jltrent]

Lemon aid with raw lemons sliced.

Anything light, domestic, and cold for me. I drink what's on sale these days but don't drink allot. I do like a 24oz after work though.

 

[Travlr]

No caffeine due to heart rhythm issues. No soda due to carbonated drinks causing muscle cramps. Minimal sugar due to carrying more weight than I want to. Life is good...

I'm down to water most of the time. Just to keep myself sane (Is it working yet?) I drink some Simply watermelon or lime juice about twice a week. A powdered decaf cappuccino Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday... and a glass of wine with my wife whenever she feels like it.
We used to be pretty regular tequila drinkers but that's slowed down a lot because our lower leg bones ache afterwards. Just in the last couple of years we finally figured out that orange wedges go better with shots than lime or lemon and we wonder how we missed that fact for the last 50+ years. LOL, too soon we get old and too late we get smart...
