Kofola is cola with herbal taste, made in Czech Republic and Slovakia.

Sparkling water

IRN BRU

Paulaner Spezi

Dr. Pepper Zero Sugar

I like sodas that are off the beaten path, so my favorite is Belvoir Rose & Elderflower sparkling lemonade. It's the perfect summer treat after coming inside from the heat. It's fantastic even when it's watered down, or mixed into a cocktail, or if you add it to lemonade, but it's great just on its own. I love floral and herbal flavors and it's just lovely.

My other favorite would be Reed's Ginger Ale, one of the few ginger ales you can buy made with actual ginger. It comes in several "strengths" and I like them all.

Bawls

Anything ginger (ginger ale, ginger beer, spicy, not spicy) as long as it's fizzy. Not all the time, these are treats.

Most root beer. A&W is solid. There's one I don't like with perfume undertones.

We make our own seltzer and it's my favorite. But any ice cold seltzers will do.

If I'm in a restaurant and craving soda, I get a coke or diet coke.

In the US South, an ice cold Cheerwine made with cane sugar in a glass bottle.

(s)urge

Probably ginger beer. I'll even squeeze some lime in there if I want a Moscow mule hold the Moscow.

Homemade tepache #1

Homemade ginger beer #2

Diet Coke/Coke Zero is my #3

I love weird and wonderful things. In Switzerland they have Rivella, made with milk whey. Deliciously refreshing.

In Czechia they have Kofola, the BuyEU poster drink. It looks like a cola drink but the taste is fairly different in a good way. They have cherry and lemon variants too!

I had the most delicious coconut flavoured fizzy water in Lanzarote, the brand name is Firgas, I believe it is a Canariense brand.

Japan has Calpis, don't mind the name because this stuff is insanely good! It's a tangy yoghurt based drink. The Korean equivalent is Milkis, equally delicious.

Talking about Korea, Lotte makes a pine bud drink (sorry can't link to that one!) and it's such an unusual and refreshing drink I really recommend it. They also have sikhye which is a drink made of fermented rice (amazake in Japan, jiuniang in China). And on the topic of rice drinks, Woongjin morning drink is superb, it's a bit pricey outside of Korea but so worth it.

Now for the number one in my heart, the drink I could inject in my veins because I like it so much is Liptonic. It's a fizzy ice tea and it's a crime it's not available everywhere.

My. Dew but I really don't drink soda anymore. When I did it was my absolute favorite and I would drink it very often.

Dr. Pepper!

I’ve been craving a soda. I think I’m gonna take this as a sign to have one. Recently I’ve been making simple syrup and adding it to club soda. Today’s soda will be mint flavored

I used to be a huge soda drinker when I was younger, but in my middle age I've almost entirely switched to seltzer with a little juice thrown in.

I hate that it's often associated with a specific type of person, but I like the flavor of Mt Dew.

Club Mate

Cream soda, and root beer. Then probably (non-alcoholic) ginger beer.

Back when I lived in N. Carolina, there was a local brand called "Dr. Enuff." Loved that stuff.

Kolashanpan - Salvadorian soda that's a unique flavor I have a hard time pinning down. Kind of like a orange vanilla bubblegum mix?

Mnt. Dew Baja blast - a more lime flavored Dew

Dr. Pepper - the OG favorite

IBC cream soda - when the craving hits once in a blue moon

Does Polar seltzer count?

I just want to point out I thought this being in my homepage on Voyager was funny

Birch Beer. Not all the time but when I crave it, it hits the spot.

Water

EDIT: Unless I'm on a plane, at which point the answer is ginger ale

Diet cokehead here!

I drink water too. And if a restaurant tries to sneak me a diet pepsi, I ask them to bring me iced tea.

Pepsi Max

Diet Dr Pepper if I'm visiting America

Dr Pepper pre-aspartame (or HFC).

Solo out of currently produced drinks.

fanta/sunkist/orange

Gingerale (prefer jamaican brands to canadian dry), Fayrouz (Pineapple flavour), and Dr Pepper.

Sinalco Cola. I replaced Coca Cola with it more than ten years ago.

Birch beer and ginger beer. Both non-alcoholic.

When Rocket Fizz had a location here, I tried a ton of stuff but those were my favorites.

1. Diet Dr Pepper
2. Jarritos Tamarind
3. Birch beer …. Maybe. I haven’t been able to get it in many years

As someone on the west coast of Canada, I love a good kombucha. There's a local brewery in my town that makes it very good.

Someone mentioned Kolashanpan, I'll also throw Vimto in the mix. Both drinks of the gods.

They don't exist where I am now, but RC Cola, Dr. Pepper, Kroger Cherry Cola, and European Orange Fanta.

My new favourite that I can have is Vita Sparkling Lemon Tea!

NOS

Sugar cane juice! (Comes in a can, does that count?)

Honorable mention: coconut la Croix.

Love me some canned static
