... what do you order if you find yourself at a bar/pub?

A long tall glass of preachiness, and garnish of smug.

What.

Are you proud of your comment?

A little, yeah.

Why?

Everybody else was trolling
I wanted to join in.

Why? Not why you did it, I get that, but... like, have you... have you never been clever before? Or... accomplished anything that would give you a GENUINE feeling of pride, that this is it for you?

???

what does my distaste for the flavor of alcohol have to do with you?

ayrt - My question was serious, and while I'd welcome an amusing response, I don't think this was it.

Soda, iced tea, lemonade, coffee or hot tea depending on the season.

Sameish as above anon because iced tea, lemonade and soda, particularly lemon soda, are my faves!

Soda or an Arnold Palmer.

Iced tea, water, a coke. If it's a fancy place maybe a mock-tail.

I drink alcohol, but if I am in a bar when I am not going to drink I usually go for mock cocktails, they are fun. And tea at some point. But I go for tea even if I am drinking.

Normally I get a soda and tip extra because I'm not there to buy drinks.

Generally, soda or water, occasionally lemonade or coffee. If it's a brewery and they brew their own root beer, that's usually pretty good.

Mocktails if they have them, I love an alcohol-less mojito.

I'm in a country where juice mixed with sparkling water is a thing, so if they don't have mocktails or if the mocktails are too expensive I'll have one if those. If I'm traveling in a country that doesn't have those, probably a coke.

I often just don't get a drink, but sometimes water.

Same. I will sometimes get an ice tea, but only if it's sugar free, which is pretty rare where I live now.

If they have mocktails, I get one of those, and if not, I'll ask for a virgin sunrise or Shirley Temple, because those ingredients are usually available.

And personally, I'm always so much more impressed when a bar/bartender can readily offer mocktails, because it means that a) they know their ingredients well, b) they're a considerate enough establishment to offer these kinds of alternatives no questions asked, and c) as a grown-ass adult I can have a fancy drink in a fancy glass instead of always getting stuck with water

Just a coke. As a person who medically cannot drink, I didn't go out to bars/pubs often, but I when I did go for live music, the bartender was very cool about it, my entire party wound up not drinking and having a good time, and no one was weird or rude about it. I guess from the bar's perspective, it was still a win to sell sodas to people who wouldn't have been in the bar buying drinks anyway if it wasn't for the music act, and the other patrons were too busy having their own nice time to worry about us.

Lemonade or whatever juice is available.

Although the last bar I went to with friends had mock-tails, which was fun to try out (I can't remember the name but I had a lime-rasberry mix that was really nice)

I drink, but if I don't feel like it... usually a cranberry seltzer, sometimes with lime. If I really want something sweet, then a virgin cocktail.

coke usually (or localised equivalent)
