    7up here too, I find it a tad sweeter also. Must have a can now *fizzle* Love the Sodastream entry into the poll there, how retro of you. :)

    Yeah, nothing tops an afternoon at work than buying an ice cold can of 7Up and slowly drinking it down.

    Sprite's nice but unless it's really REALLY REALLY cold, it can be a bit sickening!

    Yep, 7up here too. But it has to be a can!
    Drinking a bottle of it is like drinking fizz.

    It's a tough one... I haven't had 7Up in a long time because Sprite is easier to get here...

    I can't choose!

    Bottled Sprite is marginally nicer than 7UP.

    However Sprite from the dispenser in the cinema, subway etc is the finest soft drink ever created.

    Sorry to wreck that :o

    I always used to think 7-up was the drink of choice for sick people everywhere, but since that 7-up free came out, I've developed quite a taste for it. Its a good mixer for a vodka based drinking session too.

    I'm a 7up man myself.

    A few years ago I suffered from a very dodgy stomach and had regular bouts of bloated indigestion. Quite by accident I discovered that 7-up (regular not diet) was a magic cure. Sprite sadly does not have the same curative properties.

    Sprite because its not as sweet as 7up, 7up is a bit too sickely sweet for my liking.

    Sprite because even though I rarely drink either, but I would probably choose sprite as its not quite as sugary tasting.

    How can you not like the magic combination of lemon and lime. Tis heaven.

    I don't understand how 7up helps you when you're sick. Tbh, it makes me feel sick if it's flat.

    Eugh, sprite is awful stuff altogether. It tastes so chemically and fake.

    7up on the other hand is full of lovely goodness. :)

    Sprite is too fizzy so the winner has to be 7Up

    7UP all the way for me. Sprite has an awful taste that reminds me of American soda, for some reason.
