Not the silliest poll ever but definitely on the low end. As a desert dweller, I go nowhere without liquid. Water is the best, of course, but for the longest time I always had to have soda nearby, especially on the PC or stuck watching TV. Maybe I'm stuck in one of Sigmund's developmental phases (yeah, I'm a smoker too but that's honestly where it ends! What do you drink the most of? And how often?

Usually some sort of diluting juice, so basically water, though in the
last week or so I have had ALOT of uni work to get through and so have
been on a near constant coffee buzz.

I really, really wish I liked whisky. The idea of enjoying a wonderful
20 year old single malt tipped over ice in a crystal cut glass with a
few mates sound like great fun to me. ------------- I must remind the right honourable gentleman that a monologue is not a decision. - Clement Atlee, on Winston Churchill |

I've never heard a person in this country talking about drinking scotch, only on tv and movies, must be an american thing.

Beer is probably my most common source of refreshment, however I have been known to start the day with a cup or four of coffee and a sip of water to cleanse the pallette before opening a bottle of bitter.

You left out another type of water - filtered tap.
You know, those cool refrigerators with a water spigot on them?

It is a shame you're not a malt fan, you're missing out on some of the most beautifully flavoured alcohol on the face of God's great earth. Never, however, mistake a single malt with a blended scotch (Grouse, Bells etc  ) - a good malt is to be savoured, never swilled!
Current malt of choice - Balvenie 10 year old Founders Reserve (gorgeous & smooth with a hint of smoke in the finish). All time favorite - Oban (beautifully rich aroma / flavour, and velvety on the throat). -------------
