Soda / pop / fizzy drinks discussion

Picked these up from a cash and carry. Both really good, Cola is excellent. No sweetener in either.

Huge news. Lilt is now Fanta. Still the best fruit fizzy drink by miles.

Lovely blue can too

In related news I've been in Jersey City this week and had a Pineapple Fanta. 300 calories and 159% of your daily sugar allowance and NO JUICE (thank fuck!) 😱😂 Murica...

Is Cherry 7up a thing anymore?

I was convinced it existed and the good wife said she had never seen it.
Tesco managed to embarrass me, does it mean I am resigned to paying £2 for 'Merca cans in the local mini mart?

80g of added sugar?!

I mean, are they trying to harvest diabetics for something?

Cherry 7up
'Merca cans

Don't do it

Not fizzy but I'm into it

Is Cherry 7up a thing anymore?

A variety originally sold in the United Kingdom (Originally as Cherry 7 Up), although has since been discontinued. It is differentiated from the US variety as it is a pure Cherry flavored drink with a completely different recipe.

Sort of on topic, I love the track (Brothomstates, Adozenaday), but have been looking back at the ads that used it. Don’t make ‘em like they used to.

Caffeine Free Coke Zero.

10 years ago, I would have asked "what's the point?"

Now I'm all "why didn't we have this sooner?"

There was a coffee shop in the Dandenongs back in Oz 20 years ago that had a soy, decaf latte or similar that was called a "Why Bother". Oz is balls deep in that alt milk crap now. Bunch of weirdos.

This was around in 91, as a a heavy cola drinker was getting palpations from the caffeine.

Tho tasted different to normal cola.

Found this cola

No warning necessary.

"Fizzy cookie"

Isn't that a euphemism for thrush?

Someone said it just tastes like vanilla coke, which i though was nice.

I love Vanilla Coke. This tastes like someone put a spoonful of cheap hot chocolate powder in a can of old school caffeine free.

Oreos are absolute trash in any form.

My brother is trying to wean himself off monster/pepsi max type drinks. Any suggestions for colas that might fit the bill? Would quite like to get him a mix/trial pack type thing if that exists

This would have been a decent Xmas gift!

I’ve been drinking this

Is it the caffine he is trying to cut down? Or just fizzy drinks in general?
