So I’m sitting here drinking some tea, and I started to wonder what other types of beverages do people like.

I’m curious to what drinks yall like?

Is it tea, soda, fruit juices, alcohol, milk shakes, plain ol’ water, or something that I left out because I'm an idiot?

Tea from time to time

Coffee in the mornings but not every morning

Milk if it is with something such as cereal.

Not much alcohol

Usually water or milk. I loves me some moo juice.

I enjoy a good ale, and whiskey.

I like tea and hot chocolate, and only recently started drinking coffee. Even then only occasionally.

Fruit juice and soda (or "pop" as we canadians tend to say) I don't drink very often, but I don't think there are many standard beverages I would turn my nose up at.

Well I don't like the taste of alcohol and generally try to avoid caffeine do ton insomnia.

I do like the following.

Cherry Coke, Why don't that make a decaf version? It's one of the few decaffeinated things I will drink.

Mocha coffee, decaf only. I don't find this stuff often.

Bottled sweat tea: Unfortunately I cannot find an decaffeinated version of this either.

Diet caffeine-free Mountain Dew: I actually like this stuff and it is the majority of what I drink.

Lemon aid: They have this in the soda machine at work.

Arizona Green Tea... I buy it by the gallon, and drink at least two gallons a week.

I also drink alot of water, and although I don't drink anywhere near as much milk as I used to (as a kid during the summer, I'd sometimes kill almost a gallon a day) I still drink at least four glasses a week.

I don't generally drink alcohol, but I do have a bottle of Peachtree Schnapps and a bottle of Absolut Peach in the house... A single bottle lasts me usually four or five months, lol.

Dr. Pepper...

...ironically, b/c it's better for my health!

I used to drink a LOT of milk, and then I discovered a family predisposition to kidney stones. Sodas might still aggravate the problem, but not nearly as much as milk products.

Juice is ok... apple or grape, but I don't really crave it.

Other sodas: Sunkist, 7-up, Sprite, & Pepsi (only @ Arby's for some reason)

-I occasionally drink other sodas, but these are the main ones that occasionally (and I stress 'occasionally') can pull me away from Dr. Pepper.

NO DIET SODAS!!!! EVER!!! DIET is a 4-letter word, and I will not put up w/ that kind of language in my company!

Tea: never really drink it. Not a fan...

Water: Plastic Water Bottles are a problem for the environment, and the nearest recycling center is too far away... The tap is decent, but unless I'm in the mood for Kool-Aid, it's probably not happening.

Alcohol: Won't touch the stuff. At. All. Long story... don't mind if others drink, but I won't, and I prefer that it not be brought into my company.

Milk: My long-lost love... I want to consume milk (NOT skim... another 4-letter word), but I know the pain that it will cause. Thus, I must live apart from my milk... (but I still eat Ice Cream... I may pay for it several times over, but... it's Ice Cream! How am I supposed to resist that?)

I'm not picky.
Tea: I like Darjeeling, Rooibus or Oolong, and drink enough of those three alone to satisfy my share and two or three haters'.
Coffee: If it's not amaretto, and not strong enough to dissolve tar, it's a go.
Juice: Undoctored tomato, grape or pineapple, preferably, but I'm happy with most. Except cranberry.
Milk: Yes.
Soda: Eh. I like most kinds, but I don't have it very often. I find I appreciate it more when it's been awhile since the last one. For that reason, diet and I have parted company without regret.
Alcohol: I've never met a beer, lager or ale I really liked, but I can be persuaded to drink a Guinness if I'm already partly lit. I like liquor better--rum, vodka, and gin--but even then I'm choosy. I've never seriously tried wine yet.

Right now I'm drinking a nice glass of H2O. My kitchen faucet is equipped with a filtration unit, so a lovely, tall water is just a few steps away. I'm also unabashedly fond of Kool-Aid.

I like water, 2% milk, and cranberry juice. Those are the only non-alcoholic drinks I will purposely consume.
Beer and wine make up most of my beverage diet (not counting water, which is split about 50/50 with alcohol), as long as it isn't swill. Discounting Jagermeister and Chartreuse I haven't met a liquor I didn't like.

Nah, Scotch Whiskey.

Actually both spellings are correct based on which country you're in. In Ireland, its spelled whisky and in Scotland its spelled whiskey. What you should have corrected is that you should never call it scotch, plus calling it scotch whiskey is a bit redundant, its like saying I like to drink wet water.

It's the other way around. Ireland and America use the "e", Japan and Scotland (Canada too?) don't use the "e".
I generally don't refer it as Scotch Whisky, but just scotch (which you seem to have a problem with?).

I like tea. I really like this chai and vanilla chai, but I'm always trying new flavors. I had some eggnog-flavored tea over the holidays, but it wasn't very good.

I also have started drinking diet soda. Diet cherry coke, diet cherry dr pepper, diet cherry vanilla dr pepper. I like the flavored sodas more because they don't seem to leave an aftertaste. I'm glad I don't drink regular sodas as much anymore - I can already see the difference (well, I could before I went on vacation and blew that out of the water :P).

I found some little single packets of it at the grocery store. A dozen packets of powder in a box, each packet makes a twelve-ounce glass of Kool-Aid. It only comes in four or five flavors, but that's good enough for me.
