Coke is grand, but I prefer Sunkist.
Cactus Cooler deserves an honorable mention.

>waterfags need not post

if that's how it is then canfags need not post either because fountain drinks put canned soda's to shame.

>>8158309
I always thought Welchs is the sound you make before puking.
>>8158346
Coca cola is shit and you know it. Try Afri Cola. Sunkist is way too sweet.
>>8158366
Fountains are a meme. I have no idea how you could prefer that to anything. It's glass bottles all the way!

>>8158366
>majority of fountains have an imperfect carbonation/syrup ratio set
>disappointed almost always

Nah, son. Ideally everything would be in glass bottles, but pouring cans into a cup with ice is just as good.

The only correct answer.

Blood Orange is like 10 times better.

any kola nut soda recs?

>>8159031
yep blood orange is the nectar of the gods

i really wanna try the other ones, I can only find orange, blood orange, and lemon (and chinotto but wasn't a fan of that one)

This guy actually knows what he's talking about. For those who missed it, it was by far the greatest dew.

>>8158685
in the dewcision it did

>>8159153
It's the exact same orange Game Fuel that they have very year, but Halo 3 was just the first time it existed.

Normally I feel indifferent about cream soda too. This shit is so good though.

>>8159140
>>8159031
Was coming in this thread to post that while I've mostly given up soda for Canada Dry Mandarin Orange sparkling seltzer water I will on special occasions (mainly my birthday, thanksgiving, and christmas) enjoy this god tier carbonated sweet drink.

>>8158043
The one time I had Baja Blast it must have been a bad batch or something because all I could think when I had it was "This is what laundry detergent would probably taste like if you loaded it with sugar."

>>8157989
Dr. Pepper is clearly the best

>>8158652
it's pop 'cause it pops nigga get with it

>>8158652
What's funny is that I grew up in Texas and everyone I knew in school called it soda.

>>8158621

Yellow is shitter Marxist fags

>tfw love Pibb but living in California where it isn't sold in cans or bottles and the last few places to get it are Del Taco and random mom and pop restaurants if lucky

Wendy's used to carry it but the one near me stopped just like McDonald's did several years ago.

Dr. Pepper was a mistake

Used to drink soda like it was going outta style. Then I got kidney stones because of it. Haven't touched that shit in years, and I don't miss it.

>>8158043
Livewire and Voltage were my favorites.

CC Master Race

Made a trip through Europe during Christmas. This stuff was pretty good. Where can I find any in the states or online?

Any good diet drinks or shit like that?

Been trying to ween myself off of sodas but I miss the carbonation.

Henry Weinhard sodas are the best. It's not even an argument. The black cherry cream is probably my #1.

>>8158643
YOU need not post.
>>8158651
It's one of the most popular brands of cola in Germany. My point was, there's tons of less well known brands out there that are much better drinks than coca cola, pepsi, or any other large scale international corporate crap.
>>8159236
>USA
>Marxist anything
>>8159293
You did the right thing.
>>8159473
Don't fall for diet drink memes. You have to get your tastebuds and metabolism accustomed to not being showered in sugar or sweeteners all the time. It will take you about one or two weeks I'd say, at the end of which you can't even stand the taste of soda anymore because all the sugar sickens you. When I moved out of my parents' house, I only drank water and unsweetened black tea for the first two weeks, and this is exactly what happened to me.
If you miss carbonation, you should get one of those Soda Stream machines for a 100 or 150 bucks and just carbonate your own water etc. Plain water can be great with some lemon, mint or other natural flavoring.

I'm one of those elitists who mainly drinks seltzer and juice but when I do drink soda I go balls out. 85+ grams of sugar in a 20oz bottle.
On a different, semi-related note, why is Mountain Dew the soda of choice for junkies? Every time you see someone on public transit nodding off they always have a bottle of Dew next to them.

>>8158043
>>8159153
Was there a difference between the Halo 3 and the other re-releases?
>>8159162 says no but I remember getting super hyped for the first re-release (the WoW one IIRC) and then getting a bottle and being disappointed because it was not as great.

I don't think I've had a gamefuel since. Maybe I had the MW3 version, but I cannot recall.

>>8160674
If it's "citrus cherry," then it's the Halo 3 flavor.

>>8159903
If it's so popular and so much better then why isn't it mentioned often, or as well off as coke?

Mtn Dew is basically regarded as one step short of a full-fledged energy drink.
Are there more sugary/caffeinated sodas? Sure, but they aren't as easily recognizable as Mtn Dew.

>>8159153
the last gamerfuel dew i had tasted like goddamn cough syrup so forgive me for being skeptical

Except for the fucking part where it has a third to a quarter of the caffeine of actual energy drinks which if you weren't aware, are defined by caffeine.

>>8162019
They always tasted terrible.
I remember when they switched over and I thought they had somehow left soap or something in the cans before filling them.
Tried switching to a different soda (either from pepsi to coke or the other way around, cant remember anymore) and it tasted fine for a short while then suddenly it tasted like ass too.
I was so addicted to them I just put up with it until I finally gave them all up and started drinking water.

What's the escalation from a Mtn Dew to an Energy drink? If I don't want an energy drink but I want something with more kick than a Mtn Dew, what is a household brand of drink? That means nothing obscure- if I can't find your soda in a grocery store, it doesn't matter how good it is for the sake of this argument.

>>8162268
Coffee? Don't buy energy drinks.

>>8162246
You need to get off that stuff, my man. Diet Coke is a drug for many as I'm sure you're aware. Even if the stuff doesn't cause cancer, it can't be good to consume so much.

Two of my close friends and my father all fell hard for the stuff and couldn't go a day without even having some for breakfast, let alone all the drinks throughout the day.

>>8162270
I don't know where in the world you can get a satisfying coffee in a can (Japan?) but I don't think anyone in North America actually drinks canned coffee.
I think you see plenty of people drinking coffee on buses though, so I'm not sure why you've singled out Mtn Dew.
In any event, it all comes down to marketing. People drink Mtn Dew because it is marketed as an energy drink lite. Is it a lite Energy Drink? No. But how many people do you think actually make that distinction?

>>8162283
It's full of sugar but like the other anon said, the caffeine amount keeps it from being one. Honestly, I'd just brew my own coffee and put it in a thermos. My kidneys can attest to the bullshit energy drinks will put you through. Or some vitamin b12 or whichever one gives you energy. Just not energy drinks. Seriously.

>>8162268
Maybe Mountain Dew Kickstart? The flavors I've tried though taste like caffeine- like, you can tell there's more than just some sugar in there. Best advice I can give you is to avoid any kind of routine energy drink use. Consuming caffeine as a substitute for sleep will fuck you up beyond belief.

>people actually drink energy drinks
I just carefully dose pure caffeine and inject it directly into my veins, works pretty well for me.

>>8157989

I've never had that specific brand but birch beer is kind of sort of root beer-ish but not.

>>8164649
Ah. Does it taste sweeter or like, you know...more 'spiced'?

I try to not drink regular coke and stuff though, since too much soda is obviously bad for you. Keep it usually to water, tea or lemonade. Soda's usually every couple of days

Where do you get those? I personally prefer Lulu Cola, but boing stopped doing those IIRC.

This is the good german shit, yo.

>>8158652
Do Minnesotans pronounce it "poop?"

>>8164637

Like root beer but not quite. I find it actually is more "spicy" but a different kind of spice. Less than a sasparilla, though.
