Anyone here like to take a thermos with a hot drink with them when they ice climb?

If so, what's your favorite drink to put in the thermos?

Tea--herbal or caffeinated depending on the day.

"Hot Scratch" - scratchlabs.  Any flavor they are all good.

Or chai tea with way to much honey.

Tea with plenty of sugar for some energy.

I have seen people with weird concoctions of melted mars bars in sugary hot drinks. Not for me.

Warm Gatorade is a common SAR beverage for cold people. It can really pep you up when you're frozen to the bone

Chai tea with condensed milk or apple cider.

Of late I've been slicing up a good sized chunk of ginger and adding lemon juice, honey, and green tea for a bit of caffeine.

Coffee for long days. Apple Cider otherwise.

Spiced apple cider.  Partial to those Aspen mixes to put in cider.  Not as messy as cocoa, not as bowel clenching as coffee.   Add a splash of some rum or brandy and it’s dang near perfect

Hot chocolate with peppermint schnapps or tea with cinnamon schnapps.

I make a mix of honey, ginger and lemon juice in hot water for cold days bouldering.

Cider with a couple shots of bourbon

Chicken broth or beef broth. Or just Peet's coffee if I need energy.
