    Water 90% of the time. Occasionally sugar free iced tea. If I'm on the tennis courts I have a Gatorade.

    Thirsty = water every single time. Anything with a taste lingers on my tongue and makes me feel more thirsty. Nothing helps me with thirst like water. Other beverages are just for when I feel like having a certain beverage. If I walked into a store right now for a soft drink I would get a Vimto (grapes and berries carbonated drink).

    Always water. In summer nothing else quenches my thirst, and everything but water makes me even more thirsty.

    Water or iced tea with a couple packets of splenda.

    Depends on how much money I have on me. If I've got some, I'll grab a diet Mt. Dew.

    Am I jogging by the convenience store? If so, it's either green tea or water. If I'm driving? It's usually a diet coke.

    Mostly likely water if I'm thirsty, if I just fancy a drink then coke zero.

    If I'm running, I might go if the mood strikes me, Diet Cherry Dr. Pepper or Diet 7 Up.

    On the rare occasion the store I go to has it, Diet A&W Root Beer. I'll also fill up the water bottles I carry in the fountain.

    Probably one of the sugar free Sobe Lifewaters, or just actual water. I'd get kombucha if they had it, but most don't.

    Water or Coke Zero.

    And if I'm there because I'm in the middle of a long ride ... both.

    Had this happen a lot recently in the 100 degree weather. Most often water, occasionally a diet A&W.

    It's a hot day, I'm thirsty, why am I not in a pub or friend's garden?

    Coke Zero, 7-up free or water
