Beat you to the punch. Bottoms up. One for the road. Tall drink of water. A cold one. You can lead a horse to water . . .

What are some other adages, sayings, expressions, or proverbs that include words mentioning/referencing drinks and/or drinking, even if they are not actually about drinks or the act of drinking something?

    I know. I was pointing out that all my responses used a beverage in a way that had nothing to do with drinking anything at all - alcoholic or otherwise. I actually read the question and focused on that aspect. 

    Coked up - sniff/snorting cocaine
    Juiced up - injecting steroids
    Spilling the tea - gossiping
    Watered down - dilution of information 

    I suspect that Stu sees and accepts this ANGLE now (he's a pretty sharp guy), but it really doesn't matter if he doesn't. Not worth you two arguing and being ugly with each other! 

    Elbow bump and make up already! 

    ;)

    Song lyrics, sung to the tune of Give My Regards to Broadway…

    Give my regards to Davy,
    remember me to Teefee Crane.
    Tell all the pikers on the hill
    that I’ll be back again.

    Tell them just how I busted,
    lapping up the high highball.
    We’ll all have drinks at Theodore Zinck’s
    when I get back next fall!

    This is why some people have whiskey and beer glasses at closing time.

    Also, The invention of beer is proof that God loves and wants us to be happy.
