What Do You Drink When You Smoke?

[AZsteelman]

some kind of diet soda, water, Maker's Mark, Scotch, wine,


hell, anything but milk!

There's a lot of soda responses, and I guess that's not surprising. That's funny, I remember an interview with some massive collector out of Hong Kong that always drinks coca-cola with his cigars, and this guy spends millions on cigars.

12 -20 year old port or Single malt scotch.

Water? "Oh yes the stuff that fish fornicate in" - I never touch the stuff" W.C. Fields.

Usually seltzer or coffee. Sometimes rum. I don't drink a lot of soda, but occasionally I'll pair a cigar with a real sugarcane cola like Boylan's Cane Cola.

club soda is actually really good with cigars, its fizzy and doesnt corrupt the palate

 

[joshbenesh]

Lately I've had stuff with sugar in it, as it lessens the chance of a nicotine O.D. Sugar on the back of the tongue will help if you have one, so I drink a coke or something to keep it from happening.

Drambuie or Amarula,,,always no exception,,,,ok maybe to excess but never enough to get sick.

I love the cordials (Cognac, Brandy, amaretto,NAVAN, etc) sometimes liquores like Baileys, Kaluha w/milk, Grandmanier...or darker beers like Sam Adams, Smithwicks. If I go alcohol free...Coffee, Iced maybe...IceTea, CokeZero or straight-up IcedWater.

Ginger ale

 

[Hardcore]

All great ideas.

Ginger Ale is definitely good they say ginger cleans the pallet, correct me if I'm wrong. The flavored Ginger Ales are good as well because they are not that overpowering

 

[Hardcore]

Think I may try A Treat soda.

 

[srduggins]

diet Lipton raspberry white tea

I love me some good coffee (such as blackdog), often times I drink water. I have tea but have not tried it yet. As for soda the only one I like with a cigar is plain old Coca-Cola. None of the other colas quite compliment like the coke for me. Depending on the cigar it I find it gives the coke a mild rum taste when you take a drink.

 

[Halon]

IMO, Orange Crush goes best with cigars. Very refreshing taste that doesn't linger.

I may try that.

Careful, it's more addictive than cigars.

I have found Diet Dr. Pepper to be a very nice beverage when smoking. I heard this from a fellow friend of Bills and then many others.

I second that, the sweet nectar of the prune is a nice pairing indeed. I will have to try Root Beer next.

You'll love a nice bottle of Stewart's Root Beer with your smoke. I did.
