Hot coffee for the ride. A little later I'll brew up some espresso and spice it up with some zambuca. Jeznow(blackberry brandy) is always welcome. If I'm spending the night it's Captain Morgan and ginger ale. 1 dwi is enough.

Start out the morn with expresso from the home machine, off to dunkins for a Hazelnut Regular, usually kill that on the ride. Then its Mountain Dew -the rocket fuel of IceFishinChampions! I save the Patron for when I`m back home.

I'm with DasRottweiler. I drink a pot of coffee before I leave the house. Stop and grab another for the ride while I stock up with more caffiene for the day. A couple dew's or pepsi's, a 5 hour energy shot, and a tallboy iced latte. When I go it's going to be a heartattack on the ice. I don't drink much at all during the ice season. It interferes too much with my ice fishing. Plus my girl isn't on the ice with me to drive my butt home.

Homemade hard cider.

perchpunk22 · « **Reply #227 on:** Nov 11, 2009, 12:22 AM »

I actually have an edible crab apple tree in my yard and we harvest every year and make cider out of it. other than that coffee is always good. this year we'll break out the beer.

perchnut · « **Reply #228 on:** Nov 11, 2009, 09:23 AM »

how about posting that cider recipe.......I usually have a few light beers, some schnapps to go in the cocoa,,,,generally have the kids with me, so trying not to teach them that ice fishing is a big booze fest......and I like to usually have my witts about me,,,,,I know, not much fun.....but i would like that cider recipe

stoutbait · « **Reply #229 on:** Nov 11, 2009, 11:24 AM »

Voted best beer in America in 1893 Pabst Blue Ribbon for afternoons / evenings, or mountain dew if I am out in the morning.

perchnut, it's actually really easy to do, take your selected bunch of crab apples and cut them from the core. be sure to cut around worm spots. leave the skin on, it has a lot of flavor and will add a very nice color to the cider. put them in a pot and cover with water. i usually like to have the apples come up to about 3/4 of the pot and go about an inch over them with the water. simmer the apples until they are relatively transparent. simmer for about 15 minutes after that. next take a strainer and cover it with cheese cloth and strain into another container for the time being. sugar the fresh brew to taste and then put back into pot and simmer until the sugar dissolves. i will add 1-2 cinnamin sticks if we want to have that extra flavor. after the sugar has dissolved go ahead and take off the heat. enjoy when it's hot or you can bottle it and warm it up another time. hope it works well for you, it is really very easy and it looks and tastes great. enjoy!

p.s. you can use regular apples if you don't have an edible crab apple tree. and make sure the apples are edible.

Usually coffee or hot cocoa in the morning. I drank a lot of hard cider in the afternoon last year but now that I'm homebrewing, that will be my first choice. I have plans to do about 10 more gallons of a porter that I love so much.

Last weekend I heard my buddy use the term "Jack Daniels Internal Sweater"...

I am definately highjacking that term this winter.

But I'll probably have to alter it to Jim Beam on the weekend trips 8)
