I've never been able to drink any of the diet sodas, they have to much of a saccharin taste to me. I've always preferred Pepsi over Coke and I like Mug rootbeer even though the two liter bottles will always erupt when opened unless chilled first, gets my wife every time

When I drink "soft drinks",...I like Pepsi (regular, and cherry),...but, when I can find them, the soda's (oop's I'm up north again now)
I mean the pop, I really like are the "gourmet" varieties: Green River (lime drink) and, Dog n' Suds root beer. I have found them (after MUCH searching) around here, and also bought them on line when, I was in Florida.

In the time-honored tradition of the computer geek I am a Mountain Dew fan. I do like Coke Zero, it tastes much better than Diet Coke or Pepsi to me. I use that to mix Jack 'n' Cokes since the Jack already has a lot of sugar in it. I love the bottled "Mexican" Coke that uses sugar instead of HFCS for sweetener. I pop down to the neighborhood burrito stand for one occasionally, especially on a hot day. Nuthin' like super-cold Coke from a glass bottle on a 90-degree day.

Yup, the Mexican Coke (err, Coca-Cola) is great. My coworkers always look at me funny when I order it.

My wife's great-grandfather started the Pepsi bottling works in Port Angeles, WA. Consequently, we dislike having to acknowledge the existence of that other brand.

Diet Pepsi directly from the can. That helps it keep its fizz longer, but I do agree that it goes flat pretty fast nowadays. They seem to have changed the formula several years ago, because this was NOT always the case.

A&W Root Beer. Still the best. I've been trying pretty hard to find one I like better.

Fresh lemonade or limeade with real C&H sugar.

Ice Tea, brewed not instant. Have the water at about 180F (below boiling) and only leave the teabags in for 3 minutes. No more. Sugar and lemon sometimes.

Kirkland Cranberry Juice (Costco) on the rocks. Vastly superior to Ocean Spray.
