Water, it's so good I'd die without it.

Water.

Very.

A pilsner instead of the IPA I normally have, but I like to switch it up once in a while. After a long day of being in charge of keeping alive four kids (plus three visitors from the neighborhood), two cats, and a dog the size of a small horse, the flavor isn't as important as the fact that I now get to have a beer with my feet up on the table.

Water (cooled to preference)

Manly spirits Australian dry gin, fever tree premium light tonic, sliced fresh cucumber. Perfect summertime refresher.

I'm drinking a hard cider right now for example, and its thoroughly delicious, one of my favorites. I might have some rosé bubbly wine later too if hubs doesn't want it, but I gotta wait for him to get home first.

Yerba mate 10/10 will do again shortly

Summer Shandy. It's a good summer drink.

Homemade milk tea. I have matcha toasted rice, golden chai, and rooibos tea bags to choose from. I soak some chia seeds in a half and half mix of almond and coconut milk so they can absorb it and get bigger. This is what I use in place of boba and regular milk. Then I steep a teabag in a cup of hot water, stir in stevia, pour it into the milk onto a large glass jar, then dump a bunch of ice in it. Viola, lactose-free, sugar-free, high fiber milk tea.

I just finished a srawberry & brownie milkshake. It was God DAMN!

I'll be off to buy a few drinks in a moment, for the family:

• me - a "double malt" Pilsner. Plenty people dislike it because it's rather bitter, but I love it for that very reason.
• sister - a local Pilsner that has barely any hint of bitterness, she'd rather drink lighter beers.
• BIL, mum - a sweet stout. It's locally sold as "Malzbier" but it has higher alcoholic content than Eastern European Malzbiere.
• nephew - coin toss between apple juice or soda.

That'll side some entrevero that I should be getting ready to prepare right now, instead of loafing around in Lemmy.

Water, and its not. But im constipated

Pink lemonade. I'm not the biggest fan, but it's doing a good job cooling me down.

A pilsner. Locally popular brand called Mortiz. Why? It's what's on tap. It's decent, one of the better industrial pilsners. The night is young and I expect to be drinking more beer tonight.

Lucozade pink lemonade. I might have a problem, and that problem is I don't have enough of it :-P

Dr Pepper. I can never quite describe the way it tastes but I always drink it in little sips because the flavor is very savoury to me

Nectarine iced green tea. Last time I made this my pug chugged half a glass while I stepped away for a moment.

Crystal Lite wild strawberry with caffeine.

A lot tastier than it really should be and keeps me alert better than coffee

You should visit us at !cocktails@lemmy.world !

I'm having water (do a Dry July every year) and earlier had cafe con leche.

Mandatory black coffee (iced) then filtered water (chilled) all day.

Both are the best tasty liquid in the world.

Coffee, ground with vanilla bean, brewed over fresh gound cinnamon. Very.

Cracking into the Chivis regal. Been one hell of a week for me and I didn't even have to deal with CrowdStrike last week.

ground cacao beans brewed like tea or coffee.

Not currently drink ing but got transferred to Texas. And they have this drink called the bong hitter where they light the drink on fire and then blow it out and you inhale the smoke take the shot and exhale a cloud of smoke.

Just shared one of these with my girlfriend before walking her to the bus stop:

Fuckin lovely.

I have a drink I've nicknamed the one-and-done.

• 2oz bourbon (I currently use Elijah Craig small batch)
• 1oz citrus vodka (using Smirnoff)
• syrup to taste (I've tried a bunch of different combos; currently using about .75 oz triple sec syrup and 1.5 oz homemade honey/peach)
• top with soda or tonic (or don't, I'm currently out)
• garnish with lemon
• sip slowly

It lives up to the name.

Strawberry lemonade. Very tasty.

Iced espresso. Double shot in a glass of ice, top up with cold water to taste. A little sugar. My own roast. I think it's excellent.

Vodka Martini with Dolin dry Vermouth and garlic-stuffed olives.

Edit: also, first time trying a new roasted barley tea. 99 Ranch was out of the regular stuff. Decent price and zero caffeine. Great for daily, afternoon sipping without getting the jitters.

I just plopped open a classic flp-top bottle of Flensburger Pilsner.

Maritime Night Watch at my favorite wing shop. It's pretty great

Raspberry Limoncello Polar Seltzer. It's even better as a mixer with gin, rum, or white wine, but it's only 4:30pm here and I still have shit to do before I start in on the hard stuff.

Tea-flavoured soda I was given at a local food show. 0% sugar, 0% artificial additives. It's about 0% delicious.
