Drinks? Lemmesee....
Coffee, strong enough to stand a spoon up in, and straong enough to dissolve the spoon as well. I
am RedEye, after all....
The strongest Coffee (caffiene-wise) is Guatamala Antigua. And the darkness of the Roast has nothing to do with caffiene levels.
Tea: Green, Black, Gunpowder tea, various herbal teas, and (drool) properly prepared Chai Tea...
Soda of all sorts, except Grapefruit and Strawberry. I really like the IBW anything...it seems to be much more flavorful.
Beer: more like Ales and Porters than Lagers or Hefeweisen. I like the stuff to be so thick you can chew it. Shiner Bock is especially good.
On a Hot Day: Old fashioned Lemon-ade, made with the juice and the peels; about two degrees above freezing. Ditto: Lime Ade, Orange Ade
which is rather rare, and Apple cider-cloudy and tart and cold.
Cold Weather: Apple cider and cinnamon, hot. Chai, hot. Real Hot Cocoa, done with hot milk and Ghiradelli's powdered cocoa mix.
At Christmas time, use Eggnog instead of milk...yum!
To Sip: Good Whisky. Better Brandy. Single malt Scotch or one of the better blends, like Pig's nose or Sheep Dip (honest- those are the names!)
Vodka: It isn't the Spirits here, it's the water those spirits are diluted with, for the most part, served straight from the freezer.
Hmmm. I'm getting thirsty....
