Well what is your favourite tipple to keep you warm in your flask this time of the year?

I tend to go for a hot flask filled with tomato soup as it seems to stay warmer for a longer period of time, it's filling and goes great with sandwiches, the emergency flask usually filled with a hot fruit drink as most people would be able to drink it.

The hip flask is filled with Whisky, Glayva and Sherry, gives you that nice warming feeling without taking out the back of the throat Wink
Hi Graeme, my winter Warmer has to be Double OXO, with a pinch of White pepper, made in one of the insulated mugs.
Regards Bill
This one is easy

Hip flask with Ginger wine and a small drop of whisky

Hot flask Thick homemade soup and sometimes a flask of hot water to drop hot dogs in to have on a roll with mustard
I have just been told that the best of all is a couple of cheese and bacon staffordshire 'oatcakes' rolled up in foil and placed in the flask.

Might give this a go Question
A hip flask of Sloe Gin.

A it's been cold at work we have been having Bovril with pepper, maybe similar to CV's Oxo's. Ainsley Harriats "cup a soups" are nice I can recommend the cajun gumbo yum yum. as for the drink well Southern Comfort (neat) goes down well.

Cheers

If I am gonna carry a flask, its gonna have Alberta Premium Rye....when I do pack a thermos I fill it with some homemade soup, I usually have 2 or 3 varieties frozen in the freezer in single serve freezer bags. More often than not I prefer to set up the stove a boil up a hot cuppa tea.

It'd have to be the double Oxo for me too. I don't carry a flask, prefer to make it on the bank side. Campfire

Hip flask used to have cheap blended whiskey but this may well be replaced. Wink

Either that or add coke, not so good in a hip flask though Wink

I find coke a bit gritty, soot is better... Big Grin
