Day 17 of Blogtober is talking about my favourite drinks. This really does depend on what I am doing, who I am with and where I am. So will share a variety.

Coffee
This will be no surprise to you, that coffee is here. I can not start my day without a coffee, plus it is safer for those all around me. Although, during the hot weather, apart from my first cup I can do all day without one, opting for water and fruit juices.
Tea
Yes I do drink tea as well. You can always tell when I am feeling unwell, as this is the time I usually opt for tea. unless I am out for afternoon tea. C has recently got into herbal teas, and I am enjoying trying the various teas she is drinking.
Prosecco
If out with one of my friends, we drink prosecco and will share a bottle or two. We love chatting away and sipping our drinks putting the world to rights
White Wine Spritzer
On a hot Summers day there is nothing nicer than a white wine spritzer. I opt for lemondate as like my drinks sweeter. Although, I have been known to have the odd half pint or cider. We have a lovely pub near us that brews its own beer cider. Or if out for lunch, will opt for this as well.
Pina Colada
Whenever, we are out for cocktails, I always order a pina colada first. You can always tell if they will be good cocktails or not by going for your favourite. A couple of years ago I was out with my husband in a nice hotel near us. I had a cocktail and ordered this, a grey concoction turned up. We queried it and they were adamant it was fine. It tasted ok, but in the end had to leave it as the colour just put me off.
Vanilla Milkshake
I am partial to a vanilla milkshake. When we visit the grandkids we pass the services near home, and stop for a McDonalds. Firstly, so I do not have to cook and secondly for my vanilla milkshake.
What are your favourite drinks? Do you have a similar list to me, or do you have completely different tastes.
Pina coladas are so good! I love a hot chocolate in the winter!
You can never go wrong with a Pina Colada
I love a good drink! You have listed one of my absolute favs, but I would definitely say I love a Piña colada especially now that I am going away to Spain for the holidays!
You can not beat a pina colada, they are my first cocktails I always go for
I like pina colada as well, it is one of my favourite cocktails. I usually don’t drink sweet cocktails, but this one is special. It doesn’t taste like alcohol at all, haha.
I always go for the sweeter cocktail, and don’t really go for ones that are strong in alcohol
I keep hearing about prosecco. I would love to try it one day soon. I also want to see what a White Wine Spritzer tastes like too.
I do love a glass or two of prosecco, spritzers are usually with soda but I like lemonade as it is sweeter.
I love good tea before bed. Also, I can never turn down a good milkshake. Delicious options here.
I do love my milkshakes
I am a tea fan all the way and rarely drink coffee unless it’s like a milky latte, in the summer I do enjoy homemade fruit teas. I love trying mocktails when out as I don’t drink alcohol. I agree appearance of a drink is very important.
I drink mocktails if I still want a cocktail and not the alcohol, and they taste great
Pina Coladas are so much fun! Not big on wine but I love a good cocktail once in a while.
I do love a cocktail as well, althgough don’t really have them very much
I love those drinks too. I’m definitely a tea drinker though, over anything else. #Blogtober22
I am coffee all the time
I never got into tea or coffee, so for me, my favourite drinks would be hot chocolate, coke zero or a chocolate milkshake. Or alcohol wise I love a pornstar martini or something super fruity x
I like coffee in the morning, tea for the rest of the day. I Like a white wine spritzer but not keen on cocktails and definitely no milk shake for me
Coffee starts my day off, I do love my milkshakes but do not have them often
Normally I’m a water addict but I can be persuaded to have a pina colada on occasion those are delicious. I do enjoy various teas but need to be in the right mood for those.
I always go for a pina colada first when out for cocktails
Love a pina colada!
A classic cocktail
Love all these drinks too! Especially, tea, coffee and prosecco! Do you remember when we were kids and thick shakes were nearly impossible to drink through a straw? I’m vegan now so can’t pick one up at Maccy’s anymore but love to make a thick vanilla shake for a treat in the summer holidays xxx
I do remember when they used to be too thick to drink
love my coffee anytime of day – I don’t drink but love your choices
I would always opt for coffee, I don’t drink a lot only when I am out
Vanilla milkshakes are the BEST milkshakes! But coffee is the best drink ever :-p
They are the best but coffee always comes first x
I have to say that pretty much all your favourites are mine too, especially a vanilla milkshake. Delicious.
You can not beat vanilla milkshake 🙂
My morning drinks tend to be anything with caffeine in, but my latest afternoon drink is licorice tea!
I am not a fan of liqourice but I bet if you like it, then it is a lovely drink
I love coffee and tea. I drink a lot of tea when fall rolls around. It’s so cozy.
Nothing nicer than a hot drink
I have given up caffeine, but gosh I miss good cup of coffee. Decaf just doesn’t hit the spot the same! In lieu, I will take a vanilla milkshake anyday!
I feel forr you, I need my coffee to kick start my day. I do love my vanilla milkshakes
I loooove coffee, I used to love tea before having my second but hate it now. Never had a vanilla milkshake before.
You have not lived if you haven’t tried a vanilla milkshake
I drink coffee on a morning then tea for the rest of the day. I do love a Pina Colada, that makes me think of nights out in the summer. I am more of a chocolate milkshake girl but I am not a fan of the McDonalds one’s, they’re too thick for me.
I need to start drinking more tea, as do enjoy it when I do. C is a chocolate milkshake girl. I love any milkshake as long as it is vanilla
I have a very seasonal relationship with tea and tend to drink it more when it’s cold outside and I want a warm evening beverage without caffeine. Recently I got something called “purple tea” in a subscription box and I’ve been having that in the evenings.
I have heard about purple tea, are you finding it helpful?
