What is your favorite beverage for late night gaming?

Just bought a case of Vito Coconut water.

Water would do for me.

Tea, specifically Earl Grey

Coffee or water.

I always drink water when I late night game.

The same.

I like to drink nice, dark ales as my gaming time is also my wind down time after work, so a nice mellow ale and a bit of Civ 5 works wonders.

water all day.. or late night too, i guess

Scotch

I like to play some Halo and yell at my TV

Hooray Beer

A cold bottle of water is fine, or a nice cup of coffee if it's not too late.

Water. Because it's all I really need.

Green or black tea

Late night? Booze. Later night? Nothing. Stayed up all night and now the sun is coming up? Diet Coke.

Beer a lot of the time. If I'm not feeling like being sluggish and tired I'll have tea. Lapsang sometimes, but lately I've been drinking mostly green teas.

stella.

i only ever drink stella

Pepsi Max or Diet Pepsi

I like a nice rum and coke to wind down...smooth, good rum, not that captain morgan stuff...

Green tea, coffee or water.

Straight coffee early in the morning and decaf late at night

Lately, sparkling water. I don't care what the guys say, it's good once you develop a taste for it.

Drink a bottle of water, then have a dip and use the bottle as a spitter.

Gotta hydrate.

Whiskey. It either mellows me out, or it makes me more belligerent. Actually, I only like to play drunk once in a great while. I always seem to find a lot more people in my online friends list the day after though.

Anything Sam Adams. I've noticed that there is a sweet spot of the number of beers consumed that I actually perform a lot better than I do when I'm sober.

Lately it's been a thermos of hot lemon water because I am trying to limit my alcohol consumption to one night a week, and never at home.

BEER

Red Bull

Chocolate Milk

Some kind of liquor. Usually with a mixer; gaming demands a bit too much attention to really enjoy a good scotch.

Screwdrivers, lately. They're good for you! Plus, I have to get rid of this Belvedere somehow; turns out I much prefer Chopin.

Decaf Earl Grey or water.

EDIT: Also, at least 5 threads created in one day... @Hizang has some competition.

Usually seltzer. Last night, however, I drank the better part of a bottle of Bloody Mary mix while playing The Witcher 2.

Beer usually unless its gonna be an allnighter then its either red bull or monster

I'm a sucker for energy drinks. Tea is usually consumed with less twitchy games. And how can one play Yakuza without drinking a japanese lager?

Vodka. If not that then water will do.

Water da best. I think coconut water is highly overrated.

A cocktail of four parts lapsang souchong-pu'er tea, one part whiskey (Crown Royal Reserve at present). Everybody needs to drink this.

Coffee.

Use to be dr.pepper.....Then I got.....never mind anyways water all day and night.

A hot cup of Taylor's of Harrogate: Yorkshire Tea. Milk and sugar, just as god intended.

Never not be drinking water.

I guess water depending on how late, if its 8-10 I'll have a soda, but later than that its water usually.

Apple juice !

Depends what I'm playing really. Single player? Water or 7UP will do me just fine. Multiplayer with a few mates? Definitely Beer :)

It has to be tea as that is the correct drink for any situation you may find yourself in.

When i'm doing an all night game session I drink Monster Assault. But when I'm just relaxing on a night off I'll drink me some Great Lakes Ales. Mostly Dortmunder or Christmas Ale.

Black tea to the right, water to the left.

Beeeeeeer.

I usually drink rooibos tea.

Strong coffee, like a stove top expresso.
