S/O Beverage Temperature

[alabasterangel]

What temperature do you prefer your beverages? Does it vary by beverage?

[lizo11]

Coffee hot, water room temperature, beer cold, wine depends on the color.

[alabasterangel]

I like all of my beverages room temperature. (water/soda/alcohol) I just realized a big part of this is because cold hurts my hand.

I will make an exception for a margarita on the rocks.. in which case I try to drink before it gets watered down.

I prefer my pickle juice cold; it just doesn't tastes as good room temperature.

Cold with ice on just about all drinks (except coffee). I would get frustrated in Europe when they would give me a room temperature drink and when I asked for ice they would bring me a tall glass with 2 little tiny cubes in it. I like my ice!

Water has to be in a real crystal glass when I am at home or it doesn't taste right. I only drink water out of a plastic bottle or cup if I am on the go or at work, I will always pick a real glass if I have an option!

I can't drink out of glasses at home. It seems disgusting to me. I had a cat the majority of my life who would dip a paw every opportunity that she got.

I have to drink out of a bottle with a lid unless I'm in a restaurant.

I also like to eat the ice after my drink is finished. My dogs also like to eat ice.

I also like ice, just not in my drinks. It's weird.

My dog also really likes ice, and is the reason we cannot keep a towel on the freezer door. He figured out how to pull it, and help himself to ice.

Definitely varies per beverage.
I can't drink my coffee cold. Room temp and up.
Sodas - ice cold. Will tolerate room temp if necessary.
Water - anything but hot.
Juice - cold.

Coffee, tea, etc I like hot (with the exception of iced coffee, which must be cold). Most other beverages I like cool to room temperature. Exceptions include white wine, bubbly, and margaritas, which must be cold.

Malts, of course, must be piping hot.

I like cold drinks very cold, and hot drinks, hot.

Me too.
I microwave my coffee about 15 times while drinking it.

Tea - cold
Soda - cold (will drink a room temp Coke if I have to, but no other brand of soda)
Water - cold (your body has to work harder to process cold water)
Milk - cold
Juice - cold
Coffee - hot

I like cold drinks to be very cold, but I don't like ice in my drinks (unless it's a fountain soda).

Hot drinks need to be barely above room temperature, especially coffee. I've gotten in the habit of dropping an ice cube or two into my hot coffee (so apparently I AM ok with some ice).

This exactly.

[MyName]

Soda/water/beer/wine - cold (I don't like red wine because of this).

Coffee - hot, but not too hot.

I hate drinking iced drinks (especially if it's crushed ice) without a straw because it hurts my teeth.

This!

Although I like an iced coffee now and again during the summer

[ILikeSloths]

Hot or cold. No in between and not room temperature if I have a choice.

Tea: hot or cold because it's awesome either way
Water: cold
Wine: cold for all kinds (I bend the rules!) unless it's a spiced wine then warm is fine
Margaritas and other alcoholic drinks: frozen or cold
Freshly made juice: cold

[lexxasaurus]

Coffee I drink super hot. Water is room temp to cool. Liquor room temp. Beer very cold to cool... almost nothing wth ice, and I can't eat the ice after, cause my teeth are stupid sensitive.

Slightly chilled unless its hot cocoa.

[MrsBunnyfoo]

Coffee I like coffee pot hot. It comes out the perfect temp. from that thing. I microwave mine too when it drops below optimum temp.
Tea I like hot or cold.
Wine I mostly prefer cold.
