Algonquin Adventures / Best Camping Drink

Hi all,

What do you like to drink when you go camping?

Here's my favourite:
Step 1: Fill up nalgene, add tablet, shake and wait half an hour.
Step 2: Add 4oz of canadian club and white pine needles as well as lemon juice if you have it (which I usually don't)
Step 3: Drink

Best part is no hangover and you still stay somewhat hydrated!

I usually drink whiskey straight, or chase it down with some iced tea made from the powdered mix.

As for during the day, i usually bring some gatorade powder mix and alternate between that and water.

Sometime's i've drank quite a bit the night before and i've never gotten a hang over in the park. My body just says no time for a hangover, it's canoeing time.

I usually have whisky (in a plastic bottle) and drink it straight.

During the day I mostly drink water and when needed I'll have some Gatorade (powder).

Well for those back country trips where weight is a factor; Alcool, water and whatever flavouring is on hand. A mickey of that stuff lasts a week if properly calibrated.....

My fave drink in the back country is water but followed very closely by a nice single malt, usually Laphroaig Quarter Cask.

I usually premix a litre of margarita. Pour in tin cup. Add some lake water instead of ice. A shot of strawberry mio. Fins up!
