Do you have a 'comfort drink' in the same sense that people have comfort foods?

If so, what is your comfort drink? Be as specific as possible.

>> No.6822829

When I was a kid, I was under the impression that lime-flavoured Kool-Aid would stop my stomach from hurting. Maybe it was just positive thinking, but every time my stomach hurt and I drank the Kool-Aid, I felt better. Haven't had that stuff for over a decade, though, so maybe it would still be comforting.

OGD 100 proof is good sipping whiskey. I don't do whiskey neat because I can't stand drinking anything that isn't cold that isn't coffee or tea. I respect y'all for drinking it neat, though.

Old Overholt is a decent rye as well.

For a while I used to make a 'mixed drink' that was:

>3 parts OGD
>1 part Old Overholt
>1 part water and ice (roughly a squirt from the tap and two-three cubes of ice)

It's some sort of Chinese herbal tea. The closest Western equivalent I can think of is non-alcoholic Jagermeister. Imagine some bitter concoction that your local druid or apothecary brewed using local herbs and grasses. It has that bitter yet refreshing taste that some European cultures enjoy. I've tried the real deal before at a traditional Chinese medicine shop and it's bitter as fuck, but after you finish it it's strangely refreshing. The canned version is packed full of sugar so it's not as bitter but still refreshing.

That reminds me of growing up If puking, stomach ache, diarrhea, Mom gave me ginger ale. When feeling better, I got cola with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Also, If you had a sore throat or bad cough, you got honey mixed with dry powdered ginger, lemon juice, and a big spoon of my Dad's bourbon.
