Oh that sounds good. Do you mix them?

I wanna try that with sparkling water.

And the La Traviata is a very nice cigar. Only cigar I've ever had from CAO.

Cigar and a beverage don't come to mind right away when I saw the title :r

Coffee seems to be my favorite drink with a cigar.

Re: Cigar and what?
 

I typically smoke in the evening after dinner so its usually whiskey or a good beer for me.

Re: Cigar and what?
 

I like Luzianne. I usually just make pitchers of unsweet tea but if I want sweet I add 1cup of sugar for 2qts.

Other than beer and whiskey, I prefer unsweet tea with my cigars, I like sweet too but something about unsweet tea that just stays second fiddle to the cigar. I also often enjoy coffee with my smokes.

Diet coke or a scotch (pretty rare)

I love me a good pair!!!:D

Morning = Coffee w/ cigar
Afternoon = Beer (micro brew) w/ cigar
Evening = Beer w/ cigar
Warm evening = Beer w/ cigar
Cool evening = Mixed drink (mojito, Crown & Coke, ect) w/ cigar
Cold Evening = Decafe w/ cigar

I always like to pair a cigar with a drink. I don't like to smoke without a drink, if I do I usually have to spit!:sh

Re: Cigar and what?
 

Yeah, I "cut" the cranberry juice with the pellegrino, about 1 to 1.

Re: Cigar and what?
 

coke, or when i can drink scotch or beer :)

Re: Cigar and what?
 

+1. If I don't have a drink with the smoke, I spit quite a bit. Dunno why.

As for what I drink. I really like Appleton Estate rum (haven't had any of the "good" rums yet) with a few cubes and a splash of water, Jameson Reserve neat, Diet Pepsi, Lemonade, or my favorite, plain water.

Re: Cigar and what?
 

Coke, or cool aid

Re: Cigar and what?
 

If you can find it, Appleton has a 20 year aged rum, and now (as I've been told) a 30 year ages rum. I Have a bottle of the 20 year, and it ranks as the "good" stuff with me! Hard to find, and my only local source has to order it outside of the normal state ABC's list of available product. My source has been trying for two years to get a supply of the 30 year, but so far, no luck!

Lipton tea bags, family size, 4 to a gallon. Bring a couple of cups of water to a boil and remove from heat. Add bags and allow to steep for about 15 minutes. Decant and add a cup and a half of sugar. Dilute to a gallon. It's good fresh over ice, but best on day 2 or 3.

Re: Cigar and what?
 

Very close to my method, except I use 2 family size bags, and let them steep for at least 24 hours before 3/4 cup of sugar to a gallon of tea. Kinda a "sun-tea" method, except I bring water to a boil, then set off heat, then put in tea bags. Oh, FWIW, we only use porcelain lined brewing kettles for the steeping. Keeps out bitter taste that steeping that long in metal pot would bring. Glass pot would work as well, but harder to find and more expensive for no appreciable difference over porcelain, IMO.

Re: Cigar and what?
 

Coffee is always my first choice, followed by water, then Coke Zero.

If it is brutally hot out, I skip the coffee altogether.

Re: Cigar and what?
 

Thanks for the suggestion! I'll take a look on my way home tonight.

Re: Cigar and what?
 

Depends on the smoke but normally its a DR Pepper. Otherwise a cold water or a good beer.

Re: Cigar and what?
 

Cold water:sh.

Re: Cigar and what?
 

I like really strong iced coffee inthe summer, in the winter it's strong black coffee and a glass of water (separately, take turns on sips).
