Tasty carbonated beverages get a bad rap in the forum. This thread is dedicated to the ones I love.

What are your favorite tasty, carbonated beverages?

Diet Coke & Diet Dr. Pepper. :love:

Do you call it soda, pop or something else?

I grew up calling it pop, but now I call it soda.

    I don't really drink the stuff.... Used to be a Dew addict, but gave it up about a year ago. And really don't miss it all that much.

    Growing up, I called it pop. Somewhere along the lines, though, I started calling is soda.

    I like Coke Zero, Dr. Pepper (the real shiz), Sprite when I'm sick, and an A&W Rootbeer for floats!!!! Oh, and Moutain Dew out of a fountain at 7-11 on a hot summer day = love.


    I've had huckleberry soda -- oh man, that stuff is good.

    Oh, and I call it soda.

    The first time someone asked me if I wanted a "pop," I thought I was going to have to fight. Definitely soda or the specific name.

    I will never turn down rootbeer, and I drink a diet coke OR a diet pepsi occasionally. Of course any cola with to shots of tequila can talk to me anytime! I used to love sprite, but now find it to be too syrupy and only worthy of being mixed with Bacardi Limon. Most of the time, though, I just drink water.

    Yes, please!

    ...and I've always called it soda.

    I don't drink it much anymore... but not for MFP-reasons (OMGZkillarBUBBLES!). I love me some Sprecher Ginger Ale though. Fiery good stuff.

    Soda. It is soda.
  • What are your favorite tasty, carbonated beverages?

    Beer

    Soda is for baking, pop is for drinking.

    I only drink soda when I have alcohol. So it is usually rum and diet coke.

    My favorite SODA is Diet Dr. Pepper, but there will always be a place in my heart for coke zero. I also love ginger ale for when I'm feelin' a little sick or root beer if I can't have caffeine.

    Diet Dr Pepper is my drink of choice....

    Grew up calling everything coke, then asking what kind...

    My favorite POP is a three way tie between Dr. Pepper, Root Beer, and Cream Soda.

    Real Coke, none of that diet crap and certainly not Pepsi
    Irn Bru
    Lucozade lemon

    I only crave pop when I'm hungover, my body NEEDS something fizzy and sugary then.

    I don’t know if it’s considered soda, but I do love a good Bawls now and then. Also, Jones makes a delicious root beer for root beer floats. :drinker:

    And omg how did I not know until just now that Bawls also makes a caffeinated root beer?

    I'll drink anything as long as it's not diet and has vodka in it.

    A&W Root Beer.

    Anyone remember Pop Shoppe Pop?

    In the summer at vacation time, we'd go to the Pop Shoppe for a kiddy case and then the government pop shoppe for an adult case.
