Did the Romans drink wine all the time?

Well, not all the time. Would you drink coffee all the time? The Romans had a wide selection of beverages besides their various types of wines. A useful army favorite was called posca. This was a mixture of vinegar and water. It served to not only quench the thirst, but the vinegar would kill off any bacteria that may be living in the water. This was the drink that the Roman soldier offered to Jesus when he was on the cross.
