When you invite people over to your place what is the first thing you offer them to drink. Here in Holland we start with coffee (or sometimes tea if you do not like coffee). We give 2 rounds of coffee and then start with softdrinks (in the afternoon) or wine/beer in the evening.

;D It all depends on the occasion here.
If it is is Fish Fry or Bar B Que, there are several options that we offer, soda, water, lemonade, tea, beer or mixed drinks.
With the set up here everyone just usually serves themselves!!!!

that is easy, I think I want to introduce that here as well. I put all the drinks on the table/fridge and they can take it themself. Then I can enjoy the meeting myself ;D

Depends on the time of day and event. If it's a cook out soda,beer,juice,wine. In the early day tea, coffee or juice. At my house everyone knows they can help themselves to what ever they want.

Your right carlab, allowing others to serve themselves is easy, it also seems to make company more relaxed in that things are a lot less formal. Different things work for different people but I think you will find that you can enjoy yourself more when you are not constantly concerned with the drink preferences of your guests.
