When I first hunted Africa it was a cold beer after each kill and it didn't matter the time. Now G&T around the fire or a blended scotch on the rocks.

My favorite safari drink is that concentrated juice that comes in Lime or orange flavor.I put about a couple of inches of it in a long slim glass,then add some ice and water.It is especially great when returning to camp at noon on a hot day.

Luan,
if water ever touched your lips your body would go into shock.

I'd say. I agree with good ( Cuban or Dominican ) cigar and a bit of Gin & tonic or some good whiskey/scotch.
Not too much though, some of them PH's have tendencies to get you up 3-4 am to start tracking.
Last hunt with Nixon, 12 days like that 3-4 am and bed by 10-11 pm.
It was brutal, but hell, that's what I was there for.
I think Nixon never sleeps, probably some alien or terminator or something like that, that he is :-)

Many years ago, on my first Africa safari, we were hunting with Peter Johnston's Rosslyn Safaris.

There was an American hunter in camp, and our first evening in camp, we we3re enjoying a drink by the fireside.

The American hunter was having whiskey on the rocks.

He finished his whisky, and flipped the glass empty over his shoulders, throwing what was left of the ice.

He 5then asked for another one.

He was told that was the last ice they had!

He got up, and, and started looking for the ice that he had thrown away!

Just enjoyed a glass (okay two glasses) of Bunnahabhain Toiteach. Very nice.
