Good with a cigar - Page 2

Usually coke, root beer, or Dr. Pepper for me

Jasonw560 · 09-06-2011, 10:22 AM

Sweet tea or Dr Pepper.

I don't drink alcohol or coffee, so it's one of these almost exclusively.

For you root beer guys, what brand do you prefer? Or is it a one size fits all thing? When I have it it's usually an IBC or A&W. Occassionally, I'll drink a Barq's.

what is "depth charge"?

Always water, frequently rootbeer, occasionally coffee (hot or iced, or coffee-like drinks.)

There was a thread some time back where someone said "chocolate milkshake." Never tried that one, might be interesting

Mug.

Since my diet I have been drinking water only (except my occasional mixed drink or beer), Derrick has me interested in trying Sprite, I drink this carbonated water from Walmart and they have a Key Lime flavor which is reminiscent of Sprite....I will give this a shot and report back.

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

I actually like barq's the best, because it has caffeine. Haven't had ibc in ages.

Yeah. Good stuff.

timj219 · 09-06-2011, 06:58 PM

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.

+1. it is by far the best. I'll try one with a smoke this weekend.

xlc12rf · 09-07-2011, 07:15 AM

On the rare occasion I'm not having a whiskey or cognac with a cigar, I like Perrier or Pellegrino to go with em.

Mikess · 09-07-2011, 09:21 AM

Lemonade, Sweet Tea, Diet Coke and Water are the top drinks.

DaBear · 09-07-2011, 10:28 AM

Typically just water, unless its cool out in which case I'll grab a coffee or I think the coffee will go well with it. Dr. Pepper or root beer(typically mug) if I'm smoking multiple strong ones.

09-08-2011, 04:56 AM

Tried a creme soda with my stick last night. It was incredible, the soda enhanced the creamyness of the smoke. Try it man

longknocker · 09-08-2011, 06:09 AM

A&W Diet Root Beer, Coffee, Or Lemonade (Crystal Light)!
