Good with a cigar

09-06-2011, 05:18 AM

I sometimes want a non-alcoholic drink, and I would like to know what people perfer went not drinking their usual. I know it's a strange request but I am new to this lifestyle so be kind. Thanks

I like cream soda or coffee.

Cream soda sounds great

WittyUserName · 09-06-2011, 05:24 AM

I enjoy water if it is hot, or coffee if it is tolerable.

If it's hot out: Cold Press, iced tea, ice water, iced americano. Cool: coffee, depth charge, hot tea, espresso, or hot chocolate.

Have I been living in a cave? I am learning so much. Iced americano, never heard of it until now, sounds good.

Think broilermaker, some take regular coffee and drop a shot of expresso in it as others do the same with beer and whisky.

Yeah. Good stuff.

Coffee, water, or tea. Lapsang Souchong is the best tea I've found for cigars. It's got a smokey flavor of its own and it stands up very well even to full flavored smokes. A very satisfying combo.

Regularly drink Diet Pepsi...but Cream Soda and Root Beer are always good with my dark and yummy maduros.

What about a birch beer that doesn't tast like birch beer and ass?

Mattso3000 · 09-06-2011, 05:59 AM

Good call Mac, forgot about Root Beer. Hardly ever drink carbonated beverages with cigars but I do like an occasional 1919.

Sprite is great with a cigar. It sounds weird, but it will make you a believer if you try it i am sure.

I would not have thought that but I can see it being a nice fresh crisp follow up to a cigar.

What about ginger ale?

Subvet642 · 09-06-2011, 06:10 AM

I like Coke or coffee.

Mattso3000 · 09-06-2011, 06:43 AM

An americano is espresso and hot water, iced is espresso and ice. Easy.

thechrisdotcom · 09-06-2011, 07:01 AM

sweet tea for me.

Newbie_nick · 09-06-2011, 07:07 AM

Honestly, I've been going more simple when enjoying my cigars. Water when it's hot outside and coffee when it's cold. The water really washes my mouth out, so I can taste my cigars better. I used to go with beer, but that tended to deaden my taste buds.
