I drink 90% water. At work I get up at least once every hour to refill the glass. Gives me a reason to take a break and stretch my legs. I will occasionally have a soda with lunch. I have never had a cup of coffee before and I stopped drinking energy drinks.

#12My usual daily routine consists the following: 1-2 cups of coffee in the morning and lots of water and orange juice the rest of the day. I quit drinking soda years ago for the most part (still drink it occasionally but rarely) in college when it was just a lot cheaper to drink water instead and have never really had the urge to pick it up again. If you're looking to kick the soda, I'd suggest switching over to someth…
Personally I like mineral water, something about the carbonation which made it easier to drop soda.

#133-4 cups green tea a day (good to mix creatine with). You're drinking water and sometimes good anti-oxidants (great for cleansing your body after exercising, or during hangovers).
I try to stay away from coffee; it doesn't take me long to acquire a tolerance for caffeine. I just don't see the benefits of coffee.
I'm a huge fan of grapefruit juice and V8 too.

#14When I'm at home (where I work most of the time) I drink water, sometimes mixed with (orange) cordial. I found a light version of it, making me feel less guilty about drinking it. :-)

#16It depends on what sort of coding I'm doing. It's usually water or herbal tea. If I need extra energy, black tea, but I try not to do that more than a couple times a week since I broke my addiction to caffeine.
When I have to deal with new and interesting bugs that only occur with Internet Explorer, I drink whiskey.

#17On the average day:
• 2x extra strong coffees with sugar (still dislike it really, too sour, but it wakes me up.)
• ~1-2 litres of Coke and/or other fizzy drinks (my addiction)
• 1-2 Hot chocolate (at night)
• ~4x litres of water, sometimes with flavouring

#18V8 Fusion. Absolutely delicious, and (according to the marketing on the label) contains a full serving of fruit and vegetables in every 8oz.
That, and water.
