Me personally I enjoy a twisted tea or crabbies ginger beer. What day the BITOG faithful?

We're faithful everyday.

Crabbies ginger beer is a special treat I get just a couple of times per year, especially if I keep the wifey happy.
Needed a break, man. Priorities and all that. ✌Looks tasty. I’ll let my brother know. Glad you are still with us sir
Tell your bro a a shake of Angostura bitters takes it up a notch.
When its REALLY hot out, I really like the Mikes Black Cherry Lemonade . Very refreshing .
Most of these flavored drinks give me a bad headache if I have more than one. So, if I'm going to have several drinks, I usually stick to regular beer or hard liquor. It may be the insane amount of sugar in some of these mixers that doesn't agree with me.
You're not the only one. More than one gives me an awful sugar headache.
Of course, I'm lucky to make it to two. Acidity plus the sugar gives me terrible heartburn about halfway through the first bottle.
Mio (the squeezy sugar-free stuff you mix with water) and vodka (Tito's, usually) has been my refreshing drink of choice lately.

If your interested in keeping off the sugars and carbs...hard to beat White Claws. Less than 2gr sugar, 100cal, and only 2 carbs. Hard to beat. I think they taste better than Bud Light or Corona version.
All said....I'd prefer a REAL IPA!!!!!!! But 200 plus calories and 35+ carbs it's a killer at my middle age
Yes I cry like a B over that! Otherwise hard to beat a Makers bourbon on the rocks with a steak.

Only 2g of sugar, huh? I might give it a try. That's still 2 more gram than a glass of bourbon, though.
Apparently they're a preferred choice of a lot of people because the employee at a local supermarket told me White Claw is experiencing product shortage currently, and so the only flavor they had available was mango. I picked up a 6-pack. Going to try one tonight.
OK, this thing is not bad at all. Not much in terms of flavor, but I suppose that's what you get in order to keep calories/carbs/sugar down. Certainly refreshing though. Can't taste the alcohol at all, for better or for worse.

Yeah, if I had a choice, I'd just go for a beer instead, but lately beer hasn't been agreeing with me - gluten sensitivity maybe?Cheers!
sorry, I tried the white claw and others; definitely
Otherwise, a glass of this on the rocks will do nicely. Zero carbs.
Quattro Pete: I hear you. Brother has some of that and on ice I enjoy it. I haven’t had a beer since July, don’t miss it.
July was just 2 days ago.
Quattro: I meant 4th of July weekend. Had a blonde moment there
