Interrogative questions - one or more main verbs do/does

Hey I'd like to know how to change this sentence to an interrogative sentence :

"I eat meat and I drink a glass of orange juice for lunch."

Is it correct if I say: " DO I eat meat and DO I drink a glass of..." ??

or: DO I eat meat and DRINK a glass of..." ?

Thanks

Changing to an interrogative in that way produces a useless, odd and unnatural question. The only native question is ' What do you have for lunch? '

The poster is obviously interested in the correct structure in all similar questions even though his example produces a useless sentence as MrM says. His point is: Do I have to repeat do when the conjunction and is used between two infinitives? Bot
