So, I feel like asking you all, what is your favorite non-alcohol drink and why? I'm not going to do a poll because there are so many different types of drinks out there it isn't funny.

Me, I love A&W Rootbeer.

Homemade limeade, made by yours truly.

Commercial stuff -- Dr. Brown's Black Cherry soda.

Nothing beats Faygo Red Pop. Unless it is Jones Soda FuFu Berry. If you want a good alcoholic drink, add vodka to one of those two.

Snapple!

Ornage soda :p

Mountain Dew Ownz All!!!!

Apple Cider straight from Arbor day farm/orchard, there is no sore throught it will not ease

yerba mate (a very strong south american tea), genmai cha (green tea with toasted rice), lemon iced tea (real tea with real lemon, not store-bought stuff), and fresh-squeezed home-made lemonade.

Homemade limeade
Mmm . . . limeade. I also like iced tea

Real cider is definitely very excellent.

...Water. Though if I'm looking for a caffine fix I usually go for the Dew.

Dr. Pepper is by far the greatest soda ever, and the reason is this: it is good at any temperature. Can you say that about Pepsi, or Coke, or Mountain Dew, or Sprite? I think not.

egg nog.

or tea of any sort.

Tea. It is the king of beverages.

Dew or Southern Sweet Tea. Most flavors of Jones are excellent also.

hot cocoa

Water, gotta stay hydrated.

Or of course any of a number of sports drinks to help with the electrolyte levels.

Tea is also good.

You'll find any of these in my bottle cage at one time or another.

Pienade, or as we like to call it around the office, P-nade.

But seriously,I like apple cider... and Classic Coke... and hot cocoa.

Actually, I am very used to warm Coke. I worked in an office where people commonly stole food from the fridge, so took to keeping my 12 packs in my bottom drawer.

Water. Mainly bottled, seeing as how the water around here is not so good.

Chai tea

I've never had Dr Pepper warm, but I can honestly say that Coke is just as good warm as cold.

My favorite drink though is LA Ice (cola). It's great cold, it's not bad warm, and it's even pretty good cold and flat. If there's one critisism I will level at LA Ice is that if you put the bottle in the freezer before you open it, it often becomes difficult to get the cap off.

I also like a particular non-alcoholic beer you can get down here, although it's absolute rotgut.

I also like the lemon Lipton's Iced Tea. It's much better than the peach. And while we're on the subject of fruit-flavoured drinks, I also like the lemon and cherry Cokes.

Actually, I change my answer. My favorite drink is Pepsi Blue (but they don't make it anymore). Pepsi Blue was REALLY good with sushi too.

Coke products are being foisted upon me by my uni.

America's Best Iced Coffees. 3 flavors that I know of, highly caffinated. Great for staying awake, and tasty. I've been known to basically IV drip three or four 15 oz cans sometimes.

They sell them at Trader Joe's here in CT (small, non-IGA chain), though I've found them in DC and Virginia before.

Shirley Temples

So good.

It's an even split between tap water, Fanta Orange Soda, A&W Root Beer & Cream Soda, and Coca-Cola.

Innoculatte - To take coffee intraveniously

Bundaberg Ginger Beer and Raspberry Fanta. Down here you can also get Lido, which is the best lemonade I've ever tasted.

GRAPEJUICE pwns your face.

dr pepper

I drink so much of it, when i get a cut i fizzle then bleed soda

Cherry limeade from Sonic. They also make this thing called a vanilla cream Dr. Pepper of something like that, that's really good.

so, I just realized this is my second drink related thread. Anyone starting to wonder if I am a pawn of the soda industry, because I'm starting to wonder if I am.

Dr. Pepper, coffee,and Orangina are my beverages of choice.

it's all about the cherry coke, tea's good too... has to be sweetened though

There is a soft drink in Japan called Aquarius. This was in the late eighties so I don't even know if they still make it. Man was that stuff tasty.

When I lived there I drank it all the time. It's like a mild lemon flavored gatorade, really tasty. That was my all time favorite non-alcoholic drink.

Here in the states I drink Ice Tea with lemon, boring but tasty.

SPiderj of Corpra

I love my homemade horchata, it is made with ricewater, sugar, cinnamon and vanilla. Orange Julius is good stuff too!

Ice cold Milk

Clamato - a delicious blend of clam and tomato juices...vey refreshing. Also good to mix in beer.
