DarkPhysix,

Fevertree ginger beer. Strong ginger flavor, not overly sweet like many other ginger beers I’ve tried.

0ops,

I like cock and bull, especially with a squeeze of lime

aliceblossom,

Moscow Mule hold the Moscow. Been making these a lot lately. Not decided on what my preferred ginger beer for it is though.

Have you tried Buffalo Rock ginger ale? I’m pretty sure it was a civil war era tonic. They still sell it in parts of Mississippi. It hurts to drink, but mixes well with bourbon.

supernicepojo,

Second! I always like the strong bite of ginger. Im finding it harder and harder to get good ginger beer or even birch beer, they seem to have the tendency to be too sweet, like Reeds.

0ops,

Add some lime 👍

I kinda like tonic myself… though I usually take it with gin 😁.

I drink coke only when I got stomach problems, it goes great with mint tea, a 50/50 soltion, try it 👍.

bighatchester,

I prefer Pepsi over coke . But I really like jarritos pop other than the cola flavor . Also cream soda dr pepper is awesome.

stoy,

That depends on the context.

Eating pizza, nothing can ever compete with a nice glass of Trocadero, it just feels right.

At cristmas? Coca Cola? Absolutely not! Give me Zeunerts Julmust every time!

Drinking soft drink with friends and watching a movie, give me an Indian Tonic with a lemon slice, lasts long and is very tasty.

Have some dark rum (I have plenty) and want a quick drink with a good mixer, Fanta used to be great, but they have added sweeteners in addition to sugar, so they taste like crap now, so I tend to look for som itallian orange soda, it is works well.

Eating a bruger, Coca Cola is still great!

Having a quiet evening by the computer? Just stick to mineral water.

serpineslair,

A different drink for every occasion, I like it haha.

supernicepojo,

I would drink Julmust in summer if it wasnt such a social faux pas.

gregorum,

My favorite with a slice is Mandarin Jarritos. Sometimes Lima. Stewart’s Orange Creame soda is also pretty great.

I’m also a big fan of ice-cold Sprite.

stoy,

I am expecting Sprite to get the sweetener treatment as well, but for now it makes a great drink to mix it with some local distilled raspberry liquor I have, tastes like Sprite, but with a really nice aftertaste of Raspberries

trafalgar225,

I’m partial to Vanilla Coke, IBC Root Beer and Barq’s in a bottle. I had a bottle of Mystic River Root Beer years ago and it still is my favorite. Finally fresh sasparilla yum. Oh an Birch Beer of any kind. I don’t really drink soft drinks often, but those are my favs.

calabast,

The prices for coke and pepsi products has gone up an absurd amount the last few years. Unless they drop back down a bit in price (unlikely) I’m sticking to my sodastream for all my home carbonation needs.

serpineslair,

That’s fair enough. Tbh everything has gone up by absurd amounts, at least where I am.

Is this an ad? Wtf?

serpineslair,

No ad, just friendly discussion. It must be pretty hard to make it through life without naming a single brand.

stankmut, (edited )

It’s only an ad if I don’t like the discussion. Posting about a mechanical keyboard I bought and calling it great? That’s not an ad. If you do it though, that is an ad. Everyone on the internet is a shill except for me.

serpineslair,

Lmao, you had me there for a second.

Valmond,

Water! You can even carbonate it yourself!

serpineslair,

Correct answer!

Pulptastic,

Sparkling water ftw. Do you have a CO2 tank to carbonate?

Valmond,

Yeah a soda stream!

smort, (edited )
@smort@lemmy.world avatar

My wife got me a kegerator a couple years ago. It’s amazing! Like $700. Fill up the keg with tap water when you run out (my keg is like 10 gal), refill the CO2 tank every 100 gals or so. I did a math a while back and it’s like 6 cents per glass, not including upfront costs.

Or you can get an adapter to use with a standard CO2 tank with a soda stream machine. Refill those CO2 tanks at your local home brewing supply store, which again is way cheaper than the sodastream CO2

Valmond,

SodaStream user here, that seems like a way better way than building it all from scratch!

Tarquinn2049,

Sometimes… no all times, I wish I also couldn’t taste Bitter 2. Unfortunately when you carbonate water, that is literally the only flavour it has. And it has alot of it. It’s one of the most disgusting flavours to people that can taste it, and completely non-existent to everyone else.

KuroiKaze,

Fellow super taster I share your anguish

davidgro,

That’s exactly my answer to “Which carbonated soft drink is the worst?”

Calpis Soda

Sunkist and Squirt are my fave mainstream sodas available in my area.

I am on a constant hunt for best craft brew root beer, ginger beer, and birch beer. I recently found a ginger beer in Phoenix that is my reigning favorite for now.

Lennnny,
@Lennnny@lemmy.world avatar

Squirt is amazing. Not only does it have a humorous name, but it’s delicious ice ice cold. They also now have Squirt Zero, which not only is extra humorous as a name, but also very delicious. We use it as a mixer for cocktails.

trafalgar225,

Any recommendations for root beer or birch beer? I’m on the US East Coast. Thanks!

Vanth, (edited )
@Vanth@reddthat.com avatar

Mostly I just keep an eye out when visiting beer breweries to see who has sodas as non-alcoholic options. I don’t really buy soda to have at home.

Tower is an old-timey New England option, been around for like a century. I like their creme soda too.

If more South towards the Carolinas, Blenheim for ginger beer.

I used to enjoy Boylan’s, and there’s a brand called Journey that made a “Borealis birch beer” which was my favorite

Baja blast zero by a mile

Aquila,

For some reason the zero versions of mtn dew give me a headache. Which is sad because I love mtn dew but refuse to drink the sugar versions

LinkOpensChest_wav,

Yes! It’s so good. I always pick up a few 12 packs when I see it because it only comes around every once in a while

Grayox,
@Grayox@lemmy.ml avatar

Its finally back for good!

LinkOpensChest_wav,

Is it really? Oh, finally!

I never see it, though. I’ll have to look around.

I have to drop my daughter off at dance class for 45 minutes every week. Fortunately there’s a Taco Bell nearby that led me to discover the wonder that is Baja Blast Zero. Now it gives me something to look forward to every week.
