    Default Cigars and drinks

    I know there is a gret deal of asociations of great scotches/bourbons/ports etc with a cigar. But what about those who do not consume alcohol. What is your drink of choice with a cigar

    Cheers

    Interesting question...I do not smoke as most of you know but my favorite drink is sugarless hot chocolate loaded with whip cream. How good that would be with a cigar I can not answer. As for a cold drink I like an additive that you add to water called spark. I also drink diet coke. When I am out I love all kinds of coffee. I just do not like drinking coffee at home. I know riveting information

    I like Pepsi with a cigar...Ice water is best if you want to enjoy all the flavor of a cigar.

    Good coffee is also very nice.

    I really don't try to pair my cigar with a specific drink. I drink whatever I feel like and smoke whatever cigar in my humi grabs my attention first. I obviously find a nice match once and a while, but enjoy seeing how a specific drink goes with a specific cigar. Have fun experimenting.

    If it's my first time with a certain cigar, I try to have water so I can more accurately judge.
    Otherwise, if I'm not drinking a beer when I smoke, I like coffee.

    This is going to sound very strange, but my recent favorite drink pairing with a cigar is Coke Blak. It is like a coffee, coke mixture with a creamy head. I do these over crushed ice. Seriously good stuff.

    They allow that in Utah?
    I perfer to have whiskey, either Bookers, Jack or Crown. I really like water too, since it donesn't mask any of the flavors. Never had coffee with a cigar, guess thats now on the list.

    If I have anything, and I usually go with water. Or maybe a soda, if I'm in the car. I really only get the chance to have a booze-drink on sunday's when I'm watching foot ball in the garage. So it will usually be a beer because 1 pm is too early for scotch, unless the wife and kids are away, then all bets are off.

    I prefer water or coffee for my drink of nonalcoholic choice.

    I think we're a test market for this too. I've tried it - not bad at all.

    Not homemade- I am not that experimental with beverages. The shit sounded gross until I gave it a try. Now I am hooked on it as my evening cigar drink. Gotta have the ice though. I did not realize these are low on calories too.

    You should be able to grab these at your local grocer:

    When i smoke cigars, i usually dont drink anything with it. But on occasion, i will have hot apple cider. Goes great on a cold day or night. Also, I drink the hot chocolate with all the mini marshmallows in them!!!!
