It wasn’t until I spent some time in Peru and had the coke with sugar in it that I made that my preference. The “Mexican Coke” in the states and even Mexico is not guaranteed to be sugar but it is better then the reg.

Growing up I really like Pepsi over crushed ice. I was also raised on Mt. Dew and have a hardcore caffeine dependency to this day so maybe my taste buds are fried. I tried really hard to like Diet Coke but it makes me so parched.

Diet Coke tastes nasty to me. I don’t see how people drink that mess.

Coke Zero is better tasting alternative.

I used to like Diet Coke! The last few years I danced I would order it instead of booze when customers wanted to buy me a drink... I had wicked after work insomnia too those last few years, and it wasn’t until years later I actually saw a post Charlie61 made on here about caffeine having a half life of 8 hours that I made the connection.

I don’t drink it very often, but my dark soda of choice is Dr Pepper and what I’d go for before anything else.

Between Coke and Pepsi, I’ll put them both about equal. Maybe a slight edge to coke.

I mainly drink clear strawberry and mango Smile seltzer water, but if choosing between Coke or Pepsi I second Dr. Pepper, especially next to cream soda or cherry flavor.
Not so much a fan of diet soda, just tends to go flat pretty fast and tastes off to me, regular Coke or Pepsi tastes way too sweet, so I prefer Coke Cherry Zero.

Dr. Pepper is my favorite dark soda too, and I feel like it always tastes the best when it comes from Taco Bell.

A soda I love that everyone else tells me is gross is cream soda.

These 2 lime sodas are my top favorite though:

I saw some sort of pink Melon Mountain Dew at the store the other day and I wanted to try it but they only sold it in cases.

Have you tried the Dr Pepper Cream soda? Even the Zero version is great.

Agreed.

I have a cutoff of 11am for caffeine

The powerful caffeine is also why I never really did coke (the powdery kind). I’m like why put powder in my nose when I can just drink 2-3 cokes n have the same effect. Sub coke for a coke.

No but I would like to.

^^^I keep checking the soda coolers by the registers every time I go to the grocery store looking for a individual bottle of cream Dr. Pepper and no luck. I also keep looking for the new Wendy's chicken sandwich Pringles and no luck with that either.
