Cigars and non-alcoholic drinks
Options
I've got a bit of a novel question - let's say you're allowed to smoke cigars all day long, but you need your wits about you. This means that you can't have any alcoholic drinks with your cigars. Which drinks pair well with cigars?

Coffee, Various non-fruity Tea.

Arizona Diet Green Tea goes awesome with Connies, try out Peace Tea Ceylon too, it has a very clean taste, not too sweet.
-
DrPepper and of course coffee
-
Dr. Pepper, coffee, tea, water. I've found that these will go well with just about any cigar. Dr. Pepper goes especially well with habanos. Water is perfect because it doesn't have flavoring, so it helps you taste nothing but the cigar. The rest just make the flavors of the cigar pop a little more.

DP is very nice with cigars of any type, connies though not as much but still good. I prefer the DP with "real sugar" but I think that's just a limited thing. Some coffee is good and of course tea of the non flavored variety. water works okay as well.
-
My preferences in non-alcoholic drinks with my cigars include: milk, coffee, iced tea, and DR Pepper... good stuff!
-
The DP made with "real sugar" is the one out of Dublin Texas, it is not a "limited time" thing as the Dublin plant never changed to using artifical sweetner. Hope this helps.phobicsquirrel:DP is very nice with cigars of any type, connies though not as much but still good. I prefer the DP with "real sugar" but I think that's just a limited thing.

Coca-cola
NOT pepsi. ever -
Italian Cream Soda is the GOD of non-alcoholic beverages.
-
I like diet Mt. Dew myself followed by diet Dr. Pepper and diet Coke.
-
If its not coffee I will usually have a Sprite or 7up. But you can never go wrong with plain old water.
-
I'm tellin ya, everyone should try an Italian Cream Soda. Club soda, flavoring syrup of your choice, and half n half. Best drink ever!

I truly LOVE a good cigar that goes with Chocolate Milk

I used to live 20 miles from Dublin, they only sold Dublin dp's everywhere. You'd be surprised how totally burned out you can get when that's all you drink. After I moved, I didn't drink dp's for years.phobicsquirrel:

Coke, Dr. Pepper, and those Starbucks coffees that are in the glass bottles. Any of them work for me. I usually like cold drinks with a cigar.

Peach tea. Or Pepsi,kuzi16:Coca-cola
NOT pepsi. ever
NOT Coke. Ever. :-)
-
I usually just drink water, especially when I'm test driving a stick. But I also like Coke Zero and Diet DP. Coffee is good, but I mostly smoke at night so rarely get to mix it with cigars.

Don't forget Tang!

i dont mind pepsi on its own. but i hate it with a cigar for some reason. -
Sweet tea, coffee, water.
-
Diet Coke here.
-
Coffee,Hot Chocolate, Water, Fresca

whoa whoa whoa, when did all this Dr. Pepper craze start? I never read that before and I'll have to try it. I personally prefer Coffee, certain flavors of gatorade, and iced green tea. I don't really like carbonation with my stogies, but will dr. pepper a try since everyone seems to be on board with that.
-
Arizona sweet tea
-
I like a cola or coffee. Both the DP and fresca have me intrigued.
-
I have to admit, Pepsi does go better with a medium-full stick because it is so sweet. Mild and some mediums is where the sweet tea comes into play.kuzi16:

It's funny, a guy who works at my local B&M told me about pairing Dr. Pepper with cigars. He said he knew it sounded crazy but said I should try it. I finally tried it about a month ago and he was right - I think it's great with a habano or maddie (haven't tried a connie yet).
Other than that, I like coffee or ginger beer. I normally smoke in the evenings so to be honest, my cigars are usually accompanied by an 'adult' beverage!
