Liam Gallagher may be well known for his hellraising antics, having admitted to wild boozing and drug-fuelled antics in the past. But while fans are enjoying seeing him back on stage during the current Oasis world tour, they should not expect to see him knocking back shots of tequila or swilling pints.
The 52-year-old rocker is taking a much more wholesome approach to life on the road after reuniting with brother Noel Gallagher, 58, for the Oasis Live '25 Tour. It is reported he is drinking apple cider vinegar tea in an effort to protect his voice to ensure he sounds his best while on the road.
Liam has suffered from vocal issues in the past and revealed he had received cortisone injections for inflamed vocal cords. But protecting his main instrument is high on his priority list as he traverses the UK for the beginning dates of his epic tour.

Fans, who have been wowed by Liam's powerful vocals during the UK dates of the tour so far, have noticed him nursing an oak-coloured drink while he is on stage. But it appears this is simply a special tea concoction that contains honey and other soothing elements.
While the singer has complained that his new favourite drink helps him medicinally, but it offers no kick while on the road.
Speaking in 2018 in his As It Was documentary which aired the following year , Liam said: "I drink a lot of funky drinks. I have this apple cider vinegar, the one that everyone bangs on about. Apparently, it’s great for everything. Mam has it for arthritis and it’s really good for her.
"So I have vinegar, some honey and then I have some turmeric, some cayenne pepper, a squirt of lemon, hot water, stir it round and drink it. It’s really good for when you get a hoarse voice. I’ve got a thyroid problem – Hashimoto’s disease – so I can get a really hoarse voice.
"It makes you tired and your bones are creaky, but you have this drink and it makes you a bit Jumping Jack Flash."
By all rights, the new Oasis tour has been a smash hit among fans and critics. The tour sees Liam and Noel belt out 23 hit songs - with crowds lapping up the banter, vocals, and staging.
The Mirror's Showbiz Editor Mark Jefferies attended one of Oasis's first two Heaton Park gigs and was blown away by the performance - as well as the friendly relations between the lead singers. He recounts: "On Saturday night at the end of the show the brothers hugged and then Noel pointed over to his brother in a clear show of admiration and to tell the crowd just how much he loved Liam’s performance. It was a shocking sight, the total opposite of their old rows on stage."
Having managed to attend three of the first four gigs, Mark added: "Would I like more stage interaction? Of course. And some of the lines on stage are now pre-planned which doesn’t feel very Oasis. But the Gallaghers have grown up, and like their mature fans who can only manage to jump up and down for the odd song in three these days, this style of set is what they need to make things work."
The Mirror's Daniel Bird attended the first of the Manchester dates, revealing:"Walking out at Heaton Park, you could never have imagined that there was once a feud between the two siblings. Putting on a united front, the two legends walked out to their 2000 track, F***in' In The Bushes, to a crowd of 80,000 people, with the atmosphere instantly becoming electric."
Oasis have so far performed at Heaton Park on Friday 11, Saturday 12 and Wednesday 16 July - and will return for two more gigs in the park in north Manchester this weekend.
They will play both Saturday, 19 July, and Sunday, 20 July, for their final two nights in their home, where they have thrilled their local fans.
They then advance to London's Wembley Stadium, where they will take to the stage on July 25, 26 and 30 and August 2 and 3. While the two gigs in Manchester were a success, they were also marred by controversy as music fans without tickets attempted to storm the venue.
The tour will keep the Gallagher brothers busy until the end of the year, as tour dates will be performed through to late November. Their final night of the tour is set to take place in Brasil on 23 November.
