Good with a cigar

09-06-2011, 06:18 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, 06:24 AM

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

Mattso3000 · 09-06-2011, 06:39 AM

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

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

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.

Subvet642 · 09-06-2011, 07:10 AM

I like Coke or coffee.

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?

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

Mattso3000 · 09-06-2011, 07:43 AM

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

thechrisdotcom · 09-06-2011, 08:01 AM

sweet tea for me.

Newbie_nick · 09-06-2011, 08:07 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.

One more vote for Cream Soda. The first time I had it I didn't know what to expect but it was the only soda in the house after a long day of work. I mixed it with some Jim Beam and it went well with the smoke. I have had it both mixed and plain many times since then.

I actually prefer red wine with a cigar. One really enjoyable Cabernet I had recently was a 2006 castle rock from napa valley.

Non-alcoholic beverage? Iced tea, water or diet pepsi. Coffee sometimes.

What is this "non-alcoholic" thing, and why do people drink it?

Apoco · 09-06-2011, 09:26 AM

Diet root beer if it is a maduro and I have diet root beer...really brings out the chocolate.

Diet coke or water under any other circumstance.

I almost never have a cigar without a cup of coffee to go with it. Just a habit, I guess.

Ogre · 09-06-2011, 09:53 AM

Cream Soda, Root Beer, and sometimes a Mt Dew.
