The age old question. Coke? Pepsi? Store brand? Any other?
I’m personally a Dr Pepper guy myself.
Give me a nice local root beer.
In terms of mass production, Sunkist was my favorite. I don’t really drink any any more though.
The prices for coke and pepsi products has gone up an absurd amount the last few years. Unless they drop back down a bit in price (unlikely) I’m sticking to my sodastream for all my home carbonation needs.
Rivella
Had to scroll far for this, rivella FTW. Surprised to see someone from a german instance answering though
It’s the beauty of the fedi. You will find people from absolutely everywhere on each instance.
But, Lola Cola is also pretty nice.
Yes, it‘s amazing. Rivella isn‘t sold in germany though, right?
None. Theyre all bad for you
Sunkist and Squirt are my fave mainstream sodas available in my area.
I am on a constant hunt for best craft brew root beer, ginger beer, and birch beer. I recently found a ginger beer in Phoenix that is my reigning favorite for now.
Any recommendations for root beer or birch beer? I’m on the US East Coast. Thanks!
Manhattan Special Espresso soda.
Made in Brooklyn. Two shots of espresso in carbonated form.
Water! You can even carbonate it yourself!
Sparkling water ftw. Do you have a CO2 tank to carbonate?
Yeah a soda stream!
That’s exactly my answer to “Which carbonated soft drink is the worst?”
Baja blast zero by a mile
Yes! It’s so good. I always pick up a few 12 packs when I see it because it only comes around every once in a while
Its finally back for good!
Is it really? Oh, finally!
I never see it, though. I’ll have to look around.
I have to drop my daughter off at dance class for 45 minutes every week. Fortunately there’s a Taco Bell nearby that led me to discover the wonder that is Baja Blast Zero. Now it gives me something to look forward to every week.
I kinda like tonic myself… though I usually take it with gin 😁.
I drink coke only when I got stomach problems, it goes great with mint tea, a 50/50 soltion, try it 👍.
Store brand cola (Rainbow) is fine for me. Also Pepsi Max out of a can, just something about it.
A special shoutout to Canada Dry Ginger Ale, I miss it. I haven’t seen it in the store for over a month now.
Before COVID, Coca-Cola all the way. Not too sweet, and was often more consistent in cans and bottles.
Something happened after COVID, and it no longer tastes the same. I don’t know if this was the effects of the illness, or a change in manufacturing.
… Right now, it’s Dr. Pepper (or Cheerwine, if I can find it). Sharp bite, good flavor, doesn’t really have an analog with other drinks. However, I can buy one bottle and it be perfect, and buy another bottle the next day and it be less carbonated than it needs to be, or too sweet and syrupy… And I can’t ever tell why.
That depends on the context.
Eating pizza, nothing can ever compete with a nice glass of Trocadero, it just feels right.
At cristmas? Coca Cola? Absolutely not! Give me Zeunerts Julmust every time!
Drinking soft drink with friends and watching a movie, give me an Indian Tonic with a lemon slice, lasts long and is very tasty.
Have some dark rum (I have plenty) and want a quick drink with a good mixer, Fanta used to be great, but they have added sweeteners in addition to sugar, so they taste like crap now, so I tend to look for som itallian orange soda, it is works well.
Eating a bruger, Coca Cola is still great!
Having a quiet evening by the computer? Just stick to mineral water.
My favorite with a slice is Mandarin Jarritos. Sometimes Lima. Stewart’s Orange Creame soda is also pretty great.
I’m also a big fan of ice-cold Sprite.
Calpis Soda
Didn’t expect to see this but yeah, the melon calpis is so good
Fevertree ginger beer. Strong ginger flavor, not overly sweet like many other ginger beers I’ve tried.
I like cock and bull, especially with a squeeze of lime
Add some lime 👍
Bawls, which is sadly getting harder and harder to find. And IBC Black Cherry
