tippled

Had some drinks

Tippled is the past tense of tipple, meaning to drink alcohol, usually habitually or in small amounts over time.

The word carries a slightly old-fashioned, gentle connotation—more convivial than alcoholic: He tippled whiskey by the fire most evenings.

A tippler is someone who drinks regularly but not necessarily to excess.
