Haha I've never chased it with anything but water. Probably cause I don't drink anything but water as part of my diet I try to avoid sugar. I think it's a bad idea to try to avoid the taste with some flavorful drink. That sets the wrong frame for a journey. It sets a mental frame of avoiding unpleasantness. That's the opposite of what is needed for a journey, embracing the unpleasantness.
I prefer to stick with my own version of the spiritual dieta to emotionally and spiritually open me up for the journey. It consists of avoiding all flavorful foods, seasonings, etc and all sensory stimulation that I normally use to avoid feeling pain like TV, music, internet, sex, masturbation, comfort food, chit-chat/gossip, etc. This really opens the body up emotionally and makes the experience more valuable.
