finchey Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 Not really a winter drink but my tipple is rum and coke plenty of ice and a slice of lemon. It's an any time of year drink for me. 🥴👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yonny Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 Joking aside, it's tea all the way for me, although I sometimes take a hip flask of cognac if it's really cold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elmoputney Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 I usually take 4 lovely ales or ciders during the warmer months but recently ditched that in favour of not needing to get out the sleeping bag every 20 minutes on the cold, So its just tea for me, I may go retro and get some horlicks for bedtime though 😴😴😴😁 finchey, crusian and yonny 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I'm on the bank in winter then I have been known to like the occasional coffee made with baileys or whiskey. That said once I've had one the kettle is always on after that Haha. If you mean in winter in general, then I'll drink anything. Just like I do in the summer. yonny, buzzbomb, snowmanstevo and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But recently started on Caramel Coffees...if a hint of a cold is on its way...Red hot water n JD... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salokcinnodrog Posted December 2, 2019 Report Share Posted December 2, 2019 For me it is coffee, made in a Bialetti, which is of course, not tackle 'manufacturer' branded. I also try not to drink coffee after 6pm as in winter especially, I don't like getting out of the sleeping bag unless it is fish related. Getting up to put boots on and a jacket for just a pee in the cold winter nights is not my idea of heaven. I do occasionally resort to Cranberry and Strawberry or Blackberry and Blueberry flavoured teabags, but have to boil the water in my saucepan as I hardly ever take a kettle now, space saving you know😖😆 Earlier in the year I did go through a phase of one can of Magners cider in the evening.

They have recently reduced the abv on the bottles of westons I think not quite as mind blowing these days, you used to really know when you had more than a couple great stuff 😁 yonny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never really fancied gin and tonic, but these and Strawberry and Cucumber, and Mandarin and Cranberry with the right tonic really do smell good. Sadly because I'm at work not had the chance to try them though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
