I pound back one of these every morning before my ride. Highly effective this summer.

I personally like spark. It doesnt have just sugar it is healthy drink that gives you mental focus and useful energy.

edit: you don't really need anything pre-ride. you are using energy stores from the previous day's food.

Coffee: black as night, hot as hell, sweet as love. (Usually Peet's Major Dickason Blend, but lately it's been their 40th Anniversary Blend. Very nice.)

Dairy before excercise gives me major bathroom related problems afterwards. I love milk as a post ride drink though.
