Since I don’t really want to take many pictures with this neck brace on (I provably will at some point though) I am spending time learning about you all and sharing my own thoughts as well. My question of the day is your favorite beverages. I will include non-alcoholic and alcoholic:
Alcoholic:
- Gin and tonic - This is typically my go to beverage. I prefer my gin dry rather than floral.
- Jameson and Ginger - I discovered this drink quite by accident as I was in the local Sam’s Club which has Member’s Mark Irish Whiskey on clearance. I looked up a way to mix it and tried this. It was very good, and I keep this around.
- Vodka soda - I don’t care for sweet drinks as the excess sugar can have adverse effects the following morning.
I used to only drink clear alcohol such as vodka and gin; however, as I have gotten older I have found that I like a little bit of everything except rum and tequila. I keep a good supply of bourbon, cognac, brandy, and scotch on hand which I drink either neat or on the rocks depending on how I am feeling and the weather. I keep a well stocked bar at home and everything is in crystal decanters.
Non-alcoholic
- Coca Cola - Its a huge vise that I have. I have such a love of the drink that I own stock in the company (which regularly returns great dividends). I figured if I was going to buy so much that I might as well make myself some money 😂. My love for Coca-Cola is so well known that coworkers leave 6 pack bottles in my office from time to time, and I have a friend who keeps at least one or two in his mini fridge in case I visit.
- Sweet tea - What can I say? I am from the south.
- Coffee/hot tea - I am very much a flavored coffee kind of guy and that’s very much a new thing as I never drank coffee in my younger adult years. I love a good latte. I love hot tea. I can drink English Breakfast, Earl Grey, Lady Grey, Irish Breakfast, or Darjeeling.
I start every morning with a glass of water. When I was active at the gym I obviously drank more water than I am the moment.
What are your favorite drinks?
