Chasseur, that, sounds like sex in a cup! Never heard of it before but I will be certainly trying it in January. This may sound stupid, but is it served all I've the alps or is it a regional drink?
I normally have Vin Chaud. Love it!

Ricklovesthepowder, it's also nice cold and in a chocolate milkshake . . . and for that 'Morning' jolt, throw an espresso into the hot version. . . perhaps I should stick to my breky beer

Vin Chaud, or maybe a noisette. Hot Chocolate is a fallback for poor weather...
Don't forget, rule 13

During a ski day – Hot choc with Chantilly
Apres-ski – toffee vodka. And beer. And wine. Actually pretty much anything.
Anytime – rum. Or Guinness.

You know it makes sense.

Austria/Switzerland: Glühwein (not so keen on vin chaud, although the one in Le Coffee bar in Tignes was actually very good)
Italy: Calimero
France: Chocko Rhum (although OliviaDB tried to convert me to Chocko-Chartreuse... err and may have succeeded)
Speaking of which, tonight is the annual work trip to the Glühwein stand in town, so take this as a warning that any posting from me later tonight may not be totally coherent. Usually get thru about a litre of Glühwein each.

Don't really drink whilst skiing (other than a few swings of whisky from my hipflask. Apres = beer (weiss, dunkel, lager, whatever), jaeger and schnapps.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When available Gatorade... I'm not proud of it but there you go.
VAST quantities of water, and espressos.
Apres? Good brown beer or a suitably happy hot chocolate.

On the slope water and coffee, apres vin chaud as soon as the skiing is done, later wine finished off with a nice brandy or a vodka or two (don't spoil it with toffee!)

i can't believe Obstler hasn't been mentioned yet? ah, es, sorry, favourite tipples, not insanity drinks.
most favourite drink is the first cold beer in the hot tub after getting back from the day (when we're in a nice enough chalet!), otherwise i like the sound of a choko rum now!
