i know i asked this a few weeks ago but with the forum going down and me going on holiday i did nt have chance to read it fully
i do not really like spirits and so don't want whisky, brandy etc
i think someone suggested a mix of a couple?
thanks
If you don't like spirits then I have no idea why you are even considering taking a hip flask. Cocoa, water, coffee, ??
? weak lemon drink ?
Port?
Try Glayva... It's a whisky liquer, but it's really nice, no nasty kick to it.. (sort of tastes like cough mixture)..
what about a whisky liquer like loch fine, mild whisky taste but nice and orangey/ honeyish.
lucozade sport
Port and Brandy mix is nice.
I have this:

Never understood the hip flask thing. If I want a drink, i'll find somewhere warm and comfortable like a pub to have it in 🙂
Port and Brandy mix are spot on
why would you take alcohol on a cold night ride? it will only make you actually colder. drinking alcohol forces more blood past the surface of the skin so that the cold atmouspheric temperature can remove more heat from your core.

For teh lulz 😉

Rum. also pack some nice chocolate cake. pour rum over cake... all good!
Try some non-alcoholic ginger wine/cordial..... a warm glow without the alcohol.
Or mix it with scotch if you want more of a kick.
