+1 on gin and tonic. I use Beefeater gin and Schweppes or Canada Dry Tonic. A slice of lime and plenty of ice and it's coolness in a glass.

Really cold iced tea takes a close second.

I like the Schweppes over the Canada Dry Tonic

mr natural · July 19th, 2012, 10:08 PM

I gotta agree with you there, fungus. Schweppes seems a little less sweet. But I can't find it as consistently as the Canada Dry.

Water - no doubt about it.

This thread got me to thinkin' about Gus and his jug and them Pigs at Lonesome Dove.
Of course Woodrow always did say Gus never did a lick of work in his life.
And Gus would retort it was to balance Woodrow's obsession with it.

...it's goin' on 10:30pm and I've got a craving for some biscuits now.
...serves me right for thinkin'.

Apple juice with lots of ice.

Gin and grapefruit juice for me.

An I'll catch a swig in hell from Gunga Din.
I'm getting thirsty.

When I'm working, water or Gatorade.

When I'm relaxing, a nice, cold screwdriver! Or a pitcher of 'em...

waparker4 · July 19th, 2012, 10:34 PM

Water.. pimms cup.. Arizona iced tea

bigmuff113 · July 19th, 2012, 10:40 PM

Water or Sprite

Slow Reflexes · July 19th, 2012, 10:49 PM

Something cold. Beer, margarita, daiquiri, sangria, mojito, Dr. Pepper, whatever.

earoach · July 19th, 2012, 11:55 PM

Half fruit punch Gatorade/half water. on the rocks, twist of lime. or, Cranberry juice (natural, no sugar) splash of ginger ale, lime. My wife makes it for me, we call it the Refreshing Beverage. Oh, she likes a splash of Absolute in hers.

rcole_sooner · July 20th, 2012, 12:29 AM

An ice cold Diet Coke.

I'll drink unsweetened iced tea, diet soda of any kind, gatorade or powerade on bicycle rides, and lots of water too.

BoogerRooger · July 20th, 2012, 01:21 AM

This'll do for me. I like it really cold so it goes into the freezer for 20 mins before drinking. The only problem this English 'summer', is the total lack of hot weather.....

I live just down the road, GF is a great spot. Those rocks get really hot! Did you get a chance to check out some of the trails a bit south? A bit crazy knowing that you're just a few miles from a city.

Arizona Ice Tea Zero Calorie Arnold Palmer

Nick Fanis · July 20th, 2012, 04:15 AM

All day long Cold Carbonated water (aqua gazzata) or plain tap water.

Japanes barley tea (moo-gi-tcha) also works wonders.

we have 40 degrees celcious (in the shade) in Athens at this moment!

at night VERY cold beer (I prefer Asian beers like Tiger,Asahi,Tsing Tao cause they are more refreshing during the summer ) in a FROZEN glass (I always keep a few glasses in my freezer)

Tonetele · July 20th, 2012, 04:18 AM

I'm with Nick JD as we live in a hot country. Beer @ 3C, NO warmer, MUST be just above freezing point.
