tipples
Sips booze regularly
Tipples are alcoholic drinks, especially ones consumed casually or habitually: We enjoyed a few tipples before dinner.
The word carries a light, almost affectionate tone—suggesting modest drinking rather than heavy consumption.
As a verb, to tipple is to drink alcohol regularly in small amounts.
