I'm dieting so it's all water, but when I want to treat myself? Dr. Pepper. Love that stuff

Don't really drink too much soda nowadays, but every now and then this comes calling back to me, and I'm helpless to resist.

 

[sixteen-bit]

kola champagne, 12oz every couple of months or so

 

[Jarnet87]

Pepsi, Mountain Dew, Sunkist, Code Red.

 

[zorlaczerohero]

I don't drink Soda, I drink Beer or water. But in the rare occasion when I do drink soda it's either Iron Bru or Dandelion and Burdock. If you don't know what they are then I'm sorry, truly sorry.....

 

[bennywhatever]

Most midwesterners will recognize this delicacy.

It's kind of like Mello Yello, but more Orangy. It's amazing. I have 1 can a day (12oz/355mL), but sometimes more if I exercise enough to warrant it.
It's made by the Double Cola company, and probably most resembles Sundrop in taste (which is also amaaaazing), but most people don't know about Sundrop either.

Also, I can't believe some people here can drink more than 1 energy drink a day. I got heart palpitations after just 1 once, so I can't touch the stuff.

 

[Spuck-uk]

Nectar of the gods.

This presumably scottish guy, he gets it.

 

[SlickShoes]

Fritz Kola, Coca Cola and Irn Bru.

Those are my favourites in that order, I could drink it all endlessly but I have to limit myself to usually only buying a big bottle at the weekends.

 

[Marjorine]

I love Sprite. Love, love, love Sprite. I switched to Sprite Zero, which I know isn't any good for you either I buy one 2 liter and drink that over the course of the week. That's it.

I used to drink a TON of Diet Coke and Sprite, but then stopped about a year ago because it's bad for you.

I love ice-cold Sprite in a can, it just makes it even better.

 

[big_z]

Coca-Cola although I pretty much drink only zero calorie pops these days so coke zero.


BTW has anyone else tried the shit below? I did and its like drinking a car battery.

 

[gaiages]

i don't really drink soda. if i do have one, it's going to probably be a nice higher end root beer/ginger beer/etc.

or this.

I just tried one of those a couple weeks ago when someone brought some to a party...

...oh my god they are so great! My go-to alcohol beverage of choice now :3

In terms of normal soda, I'll drink a Sprite (like about an 8oz cup?) once a day at work. That's about it. Should probably not even drink that much, lol

 

[Raptomex]

Pepsi. The best. I don't drink it often anymore. Usually on weekends if I'm out or with friends.

 

[The Albatross]

Diet coke, and I probably have usually 1 a day with lunch, except on Fridays where we go out for lunch and maybe I'll get a couple refills.

Don't drink any other soda other than that, unless it's like a special occassion and there's soda involved, or I'm a designated driver or something.

 

[easterislandhead]

Don't drink pop much anymore but when I do something clear like sprite or ginger ale.

 

[daveo42]

When I can get it:

Best diet cherry cola hands down.

 

[mhayes86]

Sprite. I didn't drink much soda until I started my full-time job, so I've been drinking about a can a day during the work week for lunch. I've been cutting down lately.

My dad also introduced me to chocolate cokes many years ago. Ice, chocolate syrup, and coke. It makes for a good dessert drink.

 

[Greddleok]

Most soda is gross. I have a coke or something once every 6 months only to remember exactly why I hate the stuff.

 

[joelseph]

Cherry coke for me, if I didn't limit myself I could drink a 2 litre bottle in one day.
I'm trying to cut down though as it's not good for my teeth at all.

Massive amounts of high fructose corn syrup can do all kinds of funky shit to your body, teeth is the least of your worries.

 

[Thatonemoor]

Sprite when I drink soda. I don't drink soda that much xD

 

[Clearos]

diet mountain dew once or twice a week until I am fully off the stuff.

Schweppes Orange seltzer water!

 

[Fuchs]

Waaaaay too much of Pepsi Max.

 

[RedNumberFive]

I don't drink much "pop" so I have a Soda Stream for when I have that rare urge. I mostly drink their Coke Zero substitute.

 

[BossDarkseid]

Used to be Vanilla Coke but then i gave up and for the months it's all been Water, Tea w/Milk or Green Tea.

I digress, I did have a Fanta Lemon the other day. My sins are many.

 

[Aiustis]

I rarely drink soda, so when I do I tend to get pricier stuff. Big fan of Jones cream soda and Virgil's.

Fentiman's,though, is godly. Their ginger beer (non alcoholic btw) is the most gingery soft drink I've had. Whew.

Yes. Rarely drink soda, but Fentiman's is the nectar of the gods.
Also Faygo 60/40.

 

[BIGWORM]

Back in the day when I drank soda normally, it was Mountain Dew. I don't drink soda anymore, but if I need a quick, non-water beverage, I get an iced tea.

 

[Fallout-NL]

It used to be Coke, real Coca Cola. None of that off brand shit. But I quit a couple of years ago and now it's just water and tea/coffee for me, no sugar.

I do sometimes have it when I'm out. So good still.

 

[hydrophilic attack]

Coke, maybe around 2 litres per month.

 

[megalowho]

A quality Root Beer or Ginger Ale is top tier for me. Have a weakness for Diet Dr. Pepper and Cherry Coke Zero as well. Trying to cut all that stuff out though.

 

[Ke0]

or

Don't drink much though.

 

[DiabolicalBagel]

This presumably scottish guy, he gets it.

If I told you I'm only counting one half of that image, do you move from presuming to knowing?

 

[Currygan]

Coke Zero is the only one I drink

 

[Zach]

I really enjoy the occasional Coca-cola or an A&W Root Beer. I probably have a soda pop, oh, once every two or three weeks.

 

[Zach]

Massive amounts of high fructose corn syrup can do all kinds of funky shit to your body, teeth is the least of your worries.

Concern for my teeth is why I stopped drinking soda regularly in my late teens.

 

[Siegcram]

One bottle of cherry/vanilla coke a month and the occasional malt beer. Otherwise it's water and green tea for me.

 

[andymcc]

Holy hell. The thing pictured above is an alcoholic Root Beer and it is an abomination. I can't even identify the category of beer it is and it definitely doesn't taste like Root Beer. It's actually the worst beer I've ever had. Funny to see it in a favorite soda thread

You have either broken taste buds or haven't had root beer?

Because it definitely tastes like root beer.

And it's definitely not the worst beer.

 

[ScHlAuChi]

 

[Lumpy Onion]

Pretty much stopped drinking soda years ago, but every once in a while I like having a Coke Classic alongside pizza.

 

[A Fish Aficionado]

Coke zero, diet Dr pepper, and moxie on rare occasions.

You don't have to go cold turkey with soda, just figure out if diet, or the least amount you can do with. Same with fruit juice.

 

[Laevateinn]

I'm not sure what "soda" is, but my favorite pop is Dr. Pepper although I barely drink anymore. I've become more of a coffee guy recently. Pop is basically poison.

 

[brickwalker0]

grape and orange are also good.

 

[bennywhatever]

Pop is basically poison.

Delicious, sweet poison that flows in my blood.
Also, this seems relevant.

Funny, when I was a kid it was always 'Pop' here in Portland but due to all the Californians moving here I don't know too many people still calling it 'Pop'. I can see on that map we're on the soda/pop border but thankfully no one I know calls it 'Soda Pop'.

 

[Daria]

if I want a can: Coca cola and max of 2 in a day
bottle: Mountain Dew 20oz

So everyone that matters

 

[DJ_Lae]

I have a weakness for regular-ass Coke and Boylan's red birch beer, although the latter seems to be impossible to find in Edmonton (they carry the other flavours, just no red birch beer).

However, I drink a glass of one of these almost daily:

Been a good way to wean myself off the sugar of regular pop. They've got no artificial sweeteners and are only lightly sugared - 10g of sugar per glass.

 

[Scorpion Soldier]

Red Bull or Coke, though I try to stay away from those as much as possible.

 

[kamakazi5]

Dr. Pepper is my go to but Mr. Pibb is the best. I try to only drink it when I go out to eat so maybe a few times per month.

 

[Liquidsnake]

Coke,
I have about 3 a day.

Cherry Dr. Pepper is the best soda I have ever had.
