Water. The best beverage. I've gone months without drinking anything else.
Favorite beverage?

I just had some pretty good white wine but I dont drink it much since its hard to find really good one. Some years back I have had blue portugal or some such and it was bloody amazing. If I could have such a wine on regular basis I would be a regular drinker. Something like glass a week since I dont like alcohol.
Beer is must since I am Czech but I had long time trouble to fathom why I should drink something bitter at all. Its like punching yourself in the face! Who needs that? But the health effects of the beer has break it for me. I drink it for change too. And also life can be bitter, I know that now - and beer can make me enjoy that... I prefere Budwaiss to Pilsen even though I live in Pilsen. Otherwise I suggest Stella Artoa.
Coffe is a joke. Worse - its a poison. But I can enjoy ice variations quite a bit. I guess little poison can be O.K. As for the coffein I never had a trouble going to sleep right after drinking coffee in fact it makes me more tired so no. Thank you.
Cola? Use to love it. Now I am a hater. I used to enjoy pepsi with pizza years back but thats a past. I go for Czech variation "cofola" sometimes which use to be a joke but they have improved good deal. Otherwise I try stay away from sugar. Its for babies not for the real man...
Here in Czech mineral water is planty so I drink that with sugar of course. The varieties of tastes are just impossible many so you never get bored.
Water? I know its healthy blah blah but I drink water only just before I feel I am about to suffer from serious dehydratation and there is nothing else to drink. Life is too short to drink boring things like pure water although I could save a good money by doing that...

I mostly stick to water.
Occasionally I have fruit juice, mostly along with relatively bland meals prepared at home.
I'm not a fan of any of the darker colas. I'll occasionally have a Sprite, Fanta, or other fruit flavored soda that has only citric and not phosphoric acid. This is pretty much just at restaurants, never at home, and only if the drink is included in the meal price and/or the food it rather bland. Normally I'll just have water.
Only rarely will I drink tea.
I've tried coffee a few times but never liked it. I can tolerate a very sweet iced coffee or mocha that is at least as much chocolate than coffee, but never seek them out and have not had any since college.
I have never tried anything alcoholic, and have no plans to do so any time soon.

I'm all about MAXIMUM TASTE WITH NO SUGAR
I drink a lot of pepsi max
I'm a big fan of "minimum effective sweetness". Sugar substitutes are nasty though.
Not even for its benefits to brain plasticity, motivational neurotransmitter enhancement, and heart support?

Source?People have been trying to justify alcohol consumption for centuries but the damage always has been & always will be greater than the benefits. In a perfect controlled setting where you have 1 small sip of organic wine every night maybe it could have some benefit but in the real world alcohol is 2nd only to heroin & cigarettes
A kid got on the subway the other night with his/her friends (real skinny & young, couldn't tell if male or short-haired female). Then proceeded to projectial vomit all over the floor twice. To which I replied, "Thats why I do d**gs & don't drink", got a good response to that one. It was a Saturday night & people very feeling peppy.

I feel terrible for folks who define the excitement level of their life by their beverage.

The choices are inaccurate. Some of the choices are drinks, rather than beverages.

If I can't answer water then it would have to be milk, then some kind of cider.

Nothing is as satisfying as ice cold water. Yes, even in winter.
I do a lot of coke
I feel good if someone can derive enough life excitement without doing alcohol or drugs.
I'm in the same situation. But someone told me how to make my own Vanilla Coke - get regular Coke and add vanilla flavoring to it (obviously real vanilla is best, although around here, it's horribly expensive).

I used to drink a lot more juice and coffee when I was younger, and I'm okay with tea, sometimes still drink it for the morning. Usually prefer fruity and/or herbal teas, but whatever works.

I prefer fruit juices, but consume mostly soft drinks for the lower sugar content.

These days, at least by volume, it'd have to be water. It's always available at home, goes with most anything, and when I'm out it usually doesn't cost anything extra, so I usually go with it unless the place I'm eating has another beverage that's particularly tasty.
Tea might be second-most now; I go through times when I like particular beverages a lot, and currently it's hot tea of various types - black, mate, herbal, rooibos, etc. Milk is probably third. Juice has fallen off the charts over the past couple years, beer's been becoming less common as well. I've never liked coffee, and wine and soft drinks have always been fairly low on the list for me.
When I switched to mostly water actually corresponds pretty closely to when I had to start paying for beverages myself most of the time. It didn't seem worth the cost difference to get soft drinks or juice except once in awhile, and while I still usually have milk on hand, I drink perhaps a quarter as much of it as I used to. Tea, by comparison, it pretty inexpensive relative to soft drinks, juice, or milk.

If I just want to drink something for taste and to hell with the costs, whiskey is my go to.
