One of my favorite hobbies is going to random gas stations and fresh markets and buying sodas/juice/tea/coffee that's not available everywhere.

Like a quest of finding the greatest drinks out there.

I live in Central Wisconsin, and not a very large town, so all the gas stations just have things like Pepsi, Diet Pepsi, Cherry Pepsi, Dr Pepper, Diet Dr Pepper, all the same for coke.

We have Fresca, Barqs, and Fanta Orange. Never any of the more obscure flavors of Fanta.

I was in Chicago, and I found Pineapple fanta. That wa the best drink I've ever had. It's probably not so uncommon to most of you. I also always keep an eye out of Pibb Xtra, which I vastly prefer to Dr Pepper.

I know these things aren't out of the ordinary for other parts of the country. I just went cross-country in a car to Washington state, and I saw tons of awesome sodas that were in any gas station.

We do have a semi-decently sized Asian and Mexican ethnic enclave, but most of them are lazy, unemployed, and welfare recepitents. Every so often one opens up a Mexican or Asian grocery store, so I can get Mexican coke and some pretty tasty Asian Soda like Hey-Song or Apple Sidra

Fucking love Hey-Song.

If you ever find yourself in Alabama.

This shit. Right here. Ginger ale that actually tastes like you're licking a ginger root. For added awesome, mix with rye whiskey. Proceed to cum buckets.

This is well worth the money if you like authentic root beer and hate shit like Barq's. It's very thick and has a mouth feel like almond milk and it tastes amazing with pretty much any kind of food.
