Very important poll about stirring beverages

We all need to know!

Where's the option for "I'm right-handed and I stir clockwise, but then switch directions on the theory that this will jumble it up and lead to better absorption of suspended particulates?"

[LingEarth]

Damn, I forgot to include that one.

(seriously though, I'm mainly looking for which way of stirring people find most natural. Additional details about how you stir can be given in replies. )

I do a figure eight, but start it going clockwise

I rarely drink hot drinks, but the way I chose was the way that felt natural when trying it in the air in front of me.

I stir seven times counterclockwise, then once clockwise, then repeat the process. Usually when I'm making lemonade.
