Best Soda You've Discovered Recently

I prefer Coca Cola and RC.
I do miss the cain sugar and the tall, glass bottles.

Pepsi is ok, but doesn't seem to have the same cola flavor. I even prefer Shasta Cola over Pepsi.

How about Double Cola?

How about Sunday Drop? It was invented in New Haven, Missouri. About 12 miles west of my home town of Washington.

As a kid we always drank Sun Drop in a glass bottle. Ice cold. I know it isn't sold everywhere. Mostly midwest and some southern. I know they did a national campaign some years back with Snoop Dogs "Drop it Like it's Hot" as its theme.

It has more caffeine than mountain dew and a stronger citrus taste. I really haven't drank it much over the last 20 years, but now and then I still grab one for the nostalgia.

That experience when I was young, walking to the country store and getting it out of the cooler....awesome.

Again, Cracker Barrel sells those...They have many unique, hard to find sodas...

How about Double Cola?

I've never even heard of it.
Maybe its a regional item?

Internet says the recipe for it is unchanged since 1933. It got its name for when it intruduced a 12 oz soda, instead of the standard 6 oz bottles for its competitors.

Back in the 80's when I could drink cane sugar,it was always a Nehi Grape.

Nowadays Diet Dew.

 

[Elmgrovegnome]

Dr. Pepper is my preference but lately the Dr. Pepper and Cream soda is the bomb.

I like root beer too. Mug is much better than A & W.

I wanna add to this by saying Dr.Pepper is the nastiest soda there is. That shit is terrible.

Now want to talk about a sugar cane soda from the old days.

Iron Beer and Malta.

I enjoyed two as a kid: Cactus Cooler and Minute Maid Orange Soda.

I don't drink soda anymore, so the flavors are beyond me.

I very rarely drink soda anymore but when I was a kid, I loved Squirt.

Last time I was in Japan, I tried this Fanta Peach soda not available in the U.S., and I'm very glad because otherwise I would become a fat fuck with bad teeth from drinking it by the barrel, because damn, it was good.

What's funny is that in the late 70's early 80's I used to drink the hell out of TAB.

Now, it's coffee.

Coca Cola

By far my go to cola. Always preferred coke in the cola wars.

Mug is much better than A & W

Barq’s is good too.

Lots of good root beers, we’ve named 3 pretty easy.

My Dada drank the #$%@ out of Tab as well in the mid-70's. I drank it for a while myself, but I believe that nostalgic stores like Cracker Barrel's store don't carry it because it was sort of a fad..a 70's fad...

Does A&W root beer bottles/cans have maple leaves on the product up there in the Great White North? It's a beauty way to go, ya know...

Not that I’ve seen, and the question sparked a quick google to confirm.

But that’s a popular branding thing we see. Just not with A&W.
