Non Alcoholic Drinks

[Rick O'Shea]

Does anyone have a drinkable alternative to beer and other alcoholic beverages - I find that by the time that I have had four or five beers, my critical faculties start to crumble and I (a) end up with someone I don't really want to face in the morning and (b) my ability to perform is much reduced - as is my enjoyment of the end of night activities.

I've tried the obvious alternative (Coke, tonic water and such like), but they are so sweet as to make me feel worse than had I been on beer.

Is there a non-sweet, non-alcoholic drink readily available in the bars?

from News, Views and Ladyboys - not really related to lbs.

Well, I suppose you could always ask for plain water!

if alcohol is holding back your enjoyment, then maybe a change of tactics is in order.
i had an lb in the past that was really happy to be out the bar early.
we,d nip in for couple of beers in a cabaret show bar,
then back to the room with a bottle of three pipers and coke, and chill out in the room.
better sex, get drunk together, she,d put on the pantyhose, have even better sex etc.......
might be something you should look into if touring the bars is not quite giving you what you want.

I almost always alternate my gin & tonics with "sodah" & lime, not too sweet & I don't get blitzed. Sometimes 2-1, sometimes, rarely, club sodas only.

Haven't been hung over since the mid 90's, but I still drink enough at times to regret my actions later...... done it too many times to call them learning experiences, apparently I've learned f*@k all over the years it seems.....

But the reality is I don't want to get really wasted in a foreign land where the locals see me as a big cash box in trousers, too many variables potentially against me. Been lucky so far.

i have a friend who doesnt drink alcoholic drinks when we go out but still wanna be one of us so she orders virgin cocktails so its like she is still drinking with us but she wont get drunk sneaky bitch

try coladine (cola with grenadine)

What's the problem with plain water? It's good for you, increases your stamina and health, promotes all sorts of good things, and it's cheap and non-fattening to boot.

You mean you can get non alcoholic drinks in Thailand?  

I usually drink San Miguel Lights but when I have been a little under the weather shall we say I stick to water, coke light (diet coke), juice and tea.

You sad, sad twat.

What we Americans call Club Soda but in the LOS is refered too as soda.
As mentioned above good with a slice of menau.

If you're not drinking booze try to find bars that give you the whole can or bottle rather than just a few ounces.

As I'm a sad twat too (so the story goes).. a couple of suggestions.

Some bars stock Schweppes Manao Soda, maybe a bit sweet but ok for a change. Guess Bar stock Cranberry juice, which hits the spot (even without the vodka)

soda water...

The good news is you're not a sad, sad twat TT!

yep Soda manao is the way ahead and very refreshing- a good afternoon or with meals drink. You need more practice though if 4 or five beers puts you on your arse
