La Croix, especially the lime flavor. I know, I know, La Croix tastes like a fruit cocktail burp. But it's sugar free, and it's lip-smackingly refreshing. (And it starts to taste less bland the more you drink it.)
for Root Beer: Mug Root Beer
For cola: Coke classic ( used to drink Coke & Pepsi interchangeably)
IF Pepsi, must be the "Real Sugar" formula for Pepsi.
@Smoochs , Zuberfizz is a company out of Durango, Colorado, sold in Colorado and some other states as well, I think. I have seen it mainly at King Soopers/Kroger’s. They boast of using pure cane sugar instead of high fructose corn syrup (although I think a lot of companies have caught on and are now doing this) so it tastes better — more like an old fashioned soda. They have a bunch of flavors, and they have a website (which I have used to get the orange which most places don’t seem to be selling anymore.
@Doodlebeans , I agree. Pepsi is not the same as Coke. Pepsi is lighter and sweeter and better tasting. Even the failure “The New Coke” paled in comparison. But I’m sure it is still just as deadly to the calcium in your bones as other cola products.
I am not supposed to be drinking all these sugary sodas, so I am trying to get into the habit of preparing iced herbal tea concoctions. My homemade Tazo Giant Peach is pretty good.
Anybody like those Elderflower sodas? What I like even better is a straight Elderflower cordial — un-fizzy and without the lemon (or the booze). It has such a delicate distinctive flavor. But elderflower syrup is hard to find these days unless you buy it online.
We call it Soda or Pop, sometimes Sodapop here in Michigan, but mostly Soda. When I drank the sugary variety I loved Coca Cola Classic, Royal Crown Cola (RC) and sometimes 7up. My favorite for the last five years though has been Diet Dr. Pepper Cherry. When I was a kid my favorite was Orange Crush or fountain Cherry Coke from a real soda fountain at the local drugstore lunch counter. It came in a special fluted glass and they would pump the cherry flavor in the Coca Cola, REAL Coca Cola, not what they call 'Classic' these days.
I don't drink soda nowadays, but Black Cherry was always my favorite. There was a specific brand that I really liked, but I can't remember the name. It might have been a local brand.
Cranberry Sierra Mist starts coming out around Thanksgiving here. It was tasty when it first came out, prior to them trying to compete with 7up and go all-natural.
Not gonna lie: BARQ'S Root Beer--- or Root Beer in general. The only thing better than that would be Birch Beer-- but it's hard to find in regular stores.
Ooh! Forgot how much I like this one -- Sangria Señorial, a fruity, non-alcoholic sparkling beverage made in Mexico. I can only find it in one store anymore, so I am going to try to figure out how to make it.
I also used to love this Tamarind soda that came in cans. I don't remember what the brand was, but it had a stronger flavor than the Jarritos Tamarindo that I recently tasted.
Playtesting - not just tabletop games and card games any more. Really that should have been playtested in Beta and not [img]just with accounting and marketing but actual players. https://i.imgur.com/t48COW6.jpg[/img]
