Your drinks of choice?

Gillybob champagne shouldn't be kept for more than 5 years! Enjoy it now and put this year's bottle in the posh box.

Real coffee, redbush tea, turmeric gold , camomile and French make hot chocolate (not so sweet).

Chilled dry white and rose wine, I love red wine but it's migraine central if it's got too much tannin, G&T, white rum with fresh lime juice, sugar cane and fizzy water, my homemade Framboise, Cassis, Limoncello and Elderflower cordial.

I do love a good gin &tonic in the summer. I know gin is very in vogue right now and lots of places serve their G&T in a Spanish style glass but I get so much pleasure from a quality gin in a tall hi-ball glass, lots of ice and a slice of lemon. It's my summer favourite.

summertime is also time for Campari, it immediately whisks me back to Italy (where I first tasted this deliciously bitter and dry drink) Campari with soda or orange juice tastes of summer sunshine.

Winter it's time for Whiskey. Whiskey and a literal drop or two of water, served in my whiskey glass that I bought in Scotland several years ago and has somehow survived in my house (glass or crockery breakages are a weekly occurrence)
My favourite whiskey being Cal Ila is peaty and smokey.

Red wine I love, but it doesn't love me back and send my skin haywire, but for a glass of Apothic (I've only ever seen it in Sainsbury's but it's amazing and I highly recommend) I will risk a breakout of red, angry skin. Just one glass mind you. Anymore than that and I look like the elephant man.

I'm not much of a hot drink lover but do appreciate a well made hot chocolate with a flake in it and a few marshmallows on top.

I don't care for sweet fizzy drinks, cola and the likes but a lime and soda is very refreshing.

Last but not least champagne. Oh I hope I never become an alcoholic as life without champagne is unthinkable. In our house the go to champagne of choice is Lansons. Not a fan of cava or prosecco so much now I've discovered a love of champagne, we don't even need the excuse of a celebration.

Earl grey tea, lady grey if i can get it

G&t with lots of ice with lemon or lime or even cucumber depending on the gin.
Cold sauvignon or pinot in summer
Full bodied red wine in winter

not all at the same time of Course and only on special occasions.

Tea, tea and more tea. Weak milky coffee sometimes if I'm out at the shops or a garden centre. A nice, light beer is also very acceptable.

Regularly:-
Copious amounts of regular tea throughout the day, sometimes made with loose leaves,
One proper coffee mid morning
Glass of red or white wine evenings.

Occasionally:-
G&T
Dry cider
Lager (summer only)
Ginger wine (winter)
Malt whisky

I have just been googling gin - when did there become so many artisan gins? It feels like a sweetie shop for gin lovers out there!

Thompsons Punjana tea first thing and at various points during the day.
Proper coffee with hot milk around 11.30
Rose or red wine with our evening meal (white gives me indigestion)
Pimm's with all the trimmings
Elderflower cordial diluted with ice-cold soda water
My husband's home-made sloe gin on a winter's evening

Ha ha TellNo1Ok ...the unexpected tipples are always the best! I came across a miniature bottle of 'left over' sloe gin the other day when I was rifling through cupboards. I think know it was my DH's 'wedding favour' from when his niece married a couple of months ago. But then he left it ... Delicious indeed! Hic!

Was making a punch the other day and could only find Cointreau .. so had a quick slug to check it was OK... it was delicious... absolutely delicious...

Strong black tea first thing.
"Real" coffee with milk mid morning.
G&T in the evening.
Sherry at Christmas.
Drambuie for a treat.
Elderflower anything NEVER!

Tap water, tap water and tap water.
Caffeine free Diet Coke very occasionally, when family come to eat.

Freshly brewed coffee- latte preferably
Roibush Tea- even if I can't spell it
Silent Pool gin- honestly you just HAVE to try it!!
Chilled Prosecco or white wine
A good deep red wine

A Baileys when the GC have just left
A cup of peppermint tea when feeling a little down

Im not keen on strong proper coffee - makes me feel sick. Mainly have tea or weak instant coffee (decaff in the evening.) drink theboccasional white or rose wine. Also elderflower or lime & soda. But for the occasional evening treat I like port or tia maria!

Good Kenyan coffee in the morning, ultra weak builder's tea all day. On Fridays we have Cava and on Saturdays Champagne. Cointreau at the weekends too. I am spoilt but we buy it all when it's on offer, usually half price.

I'm supposed to avoid alcohol these days, but a large G&T is lovely, used to drink lots of beer (by the pint, not very ladylike) or cider in the summer, Tesco actually stock a good alcohol free cider.

Love a nice glass of Rose, again some good non alcoholic ones on the market.

I need 2/3 cups of coffee per day, often don't have 1st one until after Lunch & it must have 2 sugars in it to hit the spot.

Weak black tea with a Devon Cream Tea (I live in Devon, monthly treat)

Fruit teas, I like lots of different ones always without sugar.

I like Ginger Beer & Elderflower Cordial also FeverTree Tonic Water. I start the day with a mug of very weak Marmite (ok I can hear you saying YUK, love it or hate it)

Red bush tea first thing and mid afternoon, instant coffee all through morning and gin with Mediterranean tonic on Saturday evening, but has to be in 'proper' gin glass!

petra where do you get your Nordic Tonic? I've never heard of or seen it, but I googled it and I'd rather like to try it.

Guinness and blackcurrant but only in the summer in Cornwall. Only ever drink coffee when abroad - can't stand the smell or taste here for some reason.

Can't stomach real coffee, but any milk-based drink is fine by me. A mug of full fat milk often replaces a meal if I'm in a hurry.

I drink lots of tea, and changed to decaffeinated to be kinder to my bladder. Was told that still contained some caffeine and in view of the quantity I drink, tried redbush and fell in love with it! Still have one cup of proper caffeinated tea first thing though.

Real coffee being brewed now by husband. The 11 o' clock must have. Don't even keep instant in the house as it goes hard and lumpy before it's used up.

Otherwise occasional G and T, one glass of wine with dinner 5 days a week, prosecco when friends are visiting. Campari in the summer, whisky Mac in the winter.

Tea first thing and in the afternoon but not Earl Grey.

Gin with Nordic Tonic and an opened cardonom pod.
Cointreau and Tonic.
Drambuie, as it comes. You don't mess with Drambuie

Proper tea made in a pot with loose leaves.
On holiday I bought some Alpine tea and it is lovely and refreshing.
A very large gin and tonic

Tea all day.
Whisky and diet coke or Southern Comfort and lemonade if I am out in the evening (only about once a week)
