Water is delicious too, good call. Tomorrow you will thank you!

[–] neidu2@feddit.nl 16 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Beer in an airport lounge, and no.
Tomorrow it will be beer in a hotel lobby, which is what I'm looking forward to.

[–] Sammy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Get yourself a Breakfast Pint; you’ve earned it!

[–] neidu2@feddit.nl 2 points 9 months ago

Waiting at the first airport right now. There's no beer here though, as it's a tiny local airport with only a vending machine. But in about two hours I'll be landing at a larger regional one. As I'm a very frequent flier this means lounge access and free beer during my three hour wait.

I was headed on a short work trip where a couple of coworkers and I had some minutia to sort out, but I'm back home again now. The trip home was supposed to be quicker, with 30 minutes between the two flights I need between work and home, but the final leg of my flight had to revert back due to weather, so insteaf there were six hours of beer in the airport lounge.

A colleague of mine at a different office that I went to visit asked me if I wanted tea or coffee. "Surprise me", I said.

I got earl grey tea, with milk.

I was certainly surprised, and it wasn't terrible by any means, quite refreshing actually. I did feel like I was violating a handful of international tea-drinking etiquette treaties at the time mind.

[–] theatomictruth@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Ever heard of a London fog? They’re pretty popular where I am.

[–] PhobosAnomaly@feddit.uk 3 points 9 months ago

I have not, though I'll try anything twice 😊

[–] Daxtron2@startrek.website 2 points 9 months ago

Local distillery has a mixed drink version of this on draft and it is so good

Ooh, what kind of tea? Mint is my favorite, but I have a weird mint addiction so I may be biased

[–] aeharding@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

Lately Sweet & Spicy, otherwise lemon ginger is nice. :)

I like mint but only rarely do I crave it.

[–] MyDogLovesMe@lemmy.world 10 points 9 months ago (1 children)

The tears of my defeated enemies, …with an olive.

[–] toomanypancakes@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

Delicious, vengeful, and classy all in one! I like your style

[–] shinigamiookamiryuu@lemm.ee 7 points 9 months ago

Hot vanilla. You know, like hot chocolate but it's vanilla. Not a fan, but every other drink on hand were cold drinks, and I craved something warm.

[–] cmat273@sh.itjust.works 7 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Whiskey and mountain dew lmao

[–] jayrhacker@kbin.social 6 points 9 months ago

That's what Mountain Dew was created for!

Sbagliato (1/2 prosecco, 1/4 red vermouth, 1/4 campari)

[–] vrojak@kbin.social 6 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I just finished finished my morning coffee. I wish I was drinking better coffee than this instant stuff, but so far I've been too lazy to look into better options

[–] toomanypancakes@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago

Good coffee is definitely worth it though, when you get the energy to upgrade you won't regret it!

I don't know where you're located, but I like ravens brew coffees and use a pour over maker like a chemex, if you want a suggestion you don't have to look up 💜

[–] Varyk@sh.itjust.works 5 points 9 months ago

Rose wine and heck yeah

[–] plactagonic@sopuli.xyz 5 points 9 months ago

Water, tea and lots of different beers. Clasic work day - today we have to taste what we have in tanks and the tea and water is for staing hydrated.

[–] gregorum@lemm.ee 5 points 9 months ago

Bourbon. Yes

[–] klemptor@startrek.website 4 points 9 months ago

Water, and I'd rather be drinking beer but I'm counting calories, womp womp :/

[–] toomanypancakes@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

I made a cape cod with soju, but if I could materialize anything to drink I would have had gin on the rocks

[–] Doublepluskirk@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

Off-brand lemon and cold medicine drink, hot, because I have a cold. I want to be drinking the same, but with whisky

[–] Evrala@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

I'm drinking cheap matcha, I wish I was drinking nice matcha.

[–] asceticism@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

Vodka martini with Dolin dry Vermouth. Lots of crushed ice. Shaken. Poured over green olives stuffed with garlic.

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 3 points 9 months ago

Water.

[–] jayrhacker@kbin.social 3 points 9 months ago

Tonight; Scotch, it's not bad but it's not amazing. Want; Scotch, from my club which sends bottles from an individual barrel with a number less than 200… rarest and best of liquors I've personal encountered.

[–] mokus@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 9 months ago

NyQuil. No!

[–] marx2k@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

For dinner, either some kombucha I made or some water kefir i made, both carbonated with Welch's grape juice. Pretty good stuff.

After dinner, 16oz of a hazy juicy ipa I brewed last month.

I also made a bunch of wine so the wife and I have been drinking these https://www.acouplecooks.com/kalimotxo-red-wine-coke/

Fucking delicious

  • and yes
[–] quicksand@lemm.ee 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

And all my friends told me I was a degenerate for mixing wine and soda. I guess I'm actually a fancy Euro-style innovator

[–] marx2k@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

You're a person with the finer tastes in life. don't let the riffraff tell you different

[–] Lennnny@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

Barr Hill gin and tonic. It's fabulous.

[–] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 9 months ago

Water

I guess? I'd like to drink some coffee or tea but I have to get up in 7 hours so I really can't until then

But water will do for now

I was drinking green tea last night, but wanted to be drinking coke zero. Doc told me to cut that shit out.

[–] PhlubbaDubba@lemm.ee 2 points 9 months ago

Water, home made pink lemonade

[–] gerryflap@feddit.nl 2 points 9 months ago

Water. And I like water, so no issue there. I don't regularly drink alcohol on a weekday, and any soda or other garbage is banned entirely from my house
