Favorite drink for cleaning your palate?

Every once in a while I'll buy a couple of large bottles of Mountain Dew. I chill them for about an hour in the frig. to get them just right. I carefully open the twist top, and take great joy in pouring them down the sink. I've just saved someone from drinking this terrible product.
I love to throw away Mountain Dew.

I used to love Mt. Dew, but then I started feeling sick after I drank it too early in the morning, and eventually if I drank it at all. I haven't had the stuff for a good year now, and I don't miss it.
 
Espresso ,or just strong coffee , no matter what cigar I am smoking, some times a little single malt scotch ! Enjoy, Vince
 
When trying a new smoke I always use cold water, however with friendly old smokes I go for 15 year old Glenlivet. The combination is wonderful.
 
I'm going to agree with Bill Cosby on this one, a bite of chocolate is a great way to go. Also, a good dirty martini is good, That will mellow out just about any cigar. I also like Pepsi with cigars. It freshens up my mouth and keeps any spicy after taste from sticking around too long.
 
Some ceylon tea from Sri-Lanka, best tea out there i suggest everyone try a cup with their boldest stogie!
 
I often drink water with a good IPA or a strong Barleywine to freshen the palate, making every sip like the first. I think one can enjoy his, or hers favorite beverage, AND enjoy a good smoke, if you also add a drink of water now and then.
 
Cool, but not cold, water works for me. Rather than Pepsi or Mountain Dew I prefer a Diet Coke sometimes (again, not too cold). It seems to do the trick without adding all that sweetness, which tends to throw off that next draw.
