A Non-alcoholic beverage

[Johnson]

What is a manly sophisticated non-alcoholic beverage to order while out for cocktails. Pop has too much sugar and is boring, fruit juices again high in sugars, tomato juice high in sodium. Any suggestions?

[fresh]

water....or some sort of bubbly water (club soda, perrier, etc)

Rocks glass + Ice + Soda/tonic Water + A couple of Lime wedges .. looks like a vodka soda

A real Man orders Milk (unless you are lactose intolerant)

I suggest a Blue light, its still has alcohol, but it has a littlle less then mormal blue :rofl: Like don't get me wrong, if you don't wanna drink then don't drink... But if your wanting a more "Manly" non alky drink... well I just don't understand... Like if your not drinking then drink what you like, if that be pop, water, juice then be it.........

Ordering a non-alcoholic drink says you're man enough. Go ahead and feel refreshed with a juice.

San Pellegrino!! much better than Perrier.

Club Soda + lime

Virgin Caesar

Bloody Mary

Ice tea

this might work in some place, ask for a lemon lime bitter. By far my favourite non-alcoholic drink, learnt about it on my trip down under.

what is the difference between tonic water and soda water?

soda is carbonated. tonic isn't and tastes gross IMO.

There are two things you need to know in life: Tonic water and soda water are not the same, and neither are baking soda and baking powder.

Two things you don't need to know: (a) what really goes on at City Hall, and (b) what goes into hotdogs.

Arnold Palmer brand - an Iced Tea and Lemonade drink in a can that looks like a beer can, and when in a glass looks like rye and water. I find it a bit sweet so a splash of tonic water would jazz it up a bit.

That was going to be my recommendation. 50/50 ice tea and lemonade. very solid non-bozzy drink.

Even better with gin.

Blue or Blue Light? :eek: Pure swill! Try a real beer made in the country that invented the pilsener process, BEFORE the Germans copied it.

Tonic water is supposed to be carbonated (at least the Canada Dry stuff that I use to make G&T's at home)

tonic water also has quinine (sp?) in it, which give it that bitter taste. Club soda is just carbonated water....
