You Big Softy! - Your Favourite Soft Drinks

[Old Rogue]

I don't drink as much soda as I used to, try to stick with water, juices and the occasional sports drink after a workout these days. However, my favorite is good old Coca-Cola. That makes me something of a renegade since I live in the town that was the birthplace of Pepsi-Cola!

I enjoy 1/2 Claytons cola tonic, 1/2 Diet Blood Orange soda, refreshingly sour

Sonic's cherry vanilla Dr Pepper. Love Sonic ice.

Ginger Beer. It stems from a love of Enid Blyton.

 

[MarkJohn]

Fentimans Curiosity Cola.

Peach Nehi...when I can find it!

 

[DavidJones]

Any good ginger ale, but not Vernors at all.

Some of my favorites - at the British shop in Haddenfield, NJ

Hmm, I've also given up sodas for the most part but very occasionally partake.

sarsaparilla but cant normally find it
birch beer also hard to find
crystal pepsi doesnt exist anymore
cheerwine if I can find it, sort of like a dr pepper but seems to have been the southern version

sonics blue water 1st choice, cherry limede 2nd but easy ice. And I found recipes to replicate them, sort of.

Chocolate egg cream but only from Harolds NY Deli in Edison NJ. http://haroldsfamousdeli.com/ this place has giant sandwiches, meant to be shared & is from my dads childhood. Only reason for me to stop in jersey on the way to LI or my moms/my childhood home in SE CT. Dang my dad for getting me hooked on these things, now I just need to find fox syrup in DE.

And since I've been basically banned from sodas & juices for that matter, so other than water I've started drinking a lot of tea & coffee, but I cheat with my coffee, gotta have either some half n half or small splash of flavored creamer.

Diet Coke!

Fanta 10 with just a bit of sugar.
Also, Barq's Root Beer.

Fanta Pineapple Soda was great when I worked for Coke one summer. Ice cold it was perfect. Cactus Cooler was another favorite.

Oh and she is the best looking one in the commercial too.

Hmm, haven't seen that one.
Sounds good though.

Yeah the blonde is very convincing. Then again, I want the grape for some reason and I hate grape.

 

[Gregg Axley]

Good marketing, that's why.

I did purchase the Cherry Coke Zero for Christmas dinner, and I have to say it's not bad.
No carbs, no sugar, but it tastes like the regular version.
If I were drinking the regular stuff, then Mexican Coke or regular Barq's Root Beer.

The regular cardboard version?

Years ago my favorite grape drink was Purple Passion in the 2 liter bottle.
Grape drink AND Ever Clear.....

Ever Clear?! Wasn't that a brand of gasoline?! :eeek:

 

[Gregg Axley]

Yes, 106 octane.

Just kicking back with a cup of good coffee right now.
