As Screen Rant points out, it is a running joke throughout "Trailer Park Boys" that Julian always carries around some booze, it's rarely empty, and it somehow seems to never spill. Usually, the drink in question is a cuba libre — a rum and coke. Though the reasoning behind this has yet to be deeply elaborated on, it seems that the idea started innocently enough early in the history of the series, as told by Trailer Park Fandom: Mike Clattenburg, the series' director, allegedly suggested a bit of what actors call "business" (or in other words, a small activity that lends itself to building the character) to John Paul Tremblay, who plays Julian, to deliver his lines while mixing a drink so he would have something to do with his hands. And one thing led to another. Now the character is rarely seen without a drink in hand.

The bit continues beyond just the TV show and its movies. Julian is always seen holding a drink in the animated version of the series, too, so at this point, it's a defining character trait.
