    Ya know, when you're out at a nite out or a party and you don't always just wanna order coke or redbull at the bar cuz you don't drink.
    So what other non-alcoholic drinks can you order at the bar which both taste good and are cool and classy?!

    Probably not "cool" but I always get Lucozade in a pub - bottle is bigger than Coke so better value.

    Grenadine and sparkling water. Very sweet, but I love it! That, or a Cerise.

    If they had freshly squeezed juice that's what I'd be getting :) apple, pear, grape, carrot & ginger. Ya just can't beat it!

    I'm sorry, mate but I don't think there are any "cool" non alcoholic drinks! I'd just go for the one that tastes nicest.

    Try J2O if the place has it, my fave is the orange and cranberry juice, its very nice

    Don't drink Diet drinks. They're really bad for your health (much worse than sugar). They're horrible anyway.

    Remember: sugarfree = full of artificial sweeteners

    This goes for all products, not just drinks.

    Kind of expensive but i sometimes get a redbull+7up.

    Try it!

    EXACTLY!!! People don't believe me when I tell them this!

    Bars vary their drinks but I've seen them with reasonably nice blackcurrant and pineapple juices. Mmmm... although the drinks in pubs are often €4 or something ridiculous for something like 250ml or less. Just ask at the bar.
    ginger ale is nice and doesn't look out of place if thats what you're worried about.

    That's actually a nice enough drink - I've never even though of asking for this (even though I tend to stay away from bars so I don't find out).

    Sorry but don't you think people know this?

    Some pubs have those dispensing “guns” that can serve soft drinks. If they have one ask for a pint of soda water and lime. Hopefully it’d be free but even so it shouldn’t be more than €1.

    Water.

    No - I don't think a lot of people know this. You'd be surprised how many people I've said it to that had no clue! :) It's everywhere - I found saccharin (an articficial sweetener) in a can of Heinz baked beans the other day!

    People don't know this. In fact I've only come across a few that do. Aspartame and saccharin are everywhere - drinks, sauces, sweets - even some crisps.

    I think soda water dash of lime... 7up, cranberry juice.., though id say my drink is sparkling water...... with loads of ice nd a slice of lemon or lime!!!!:D:D

    its a load of fanny!

    basically, you can pick a drink that is part of a cocktail, without the alcohol

    Red Bull, 7UP, fanta, lucozade, mi-wadi

    I usually start off with a pint of Lucozade. anything more than 2 glasses gives ye way too much gas!

    too much juice gives you the sh;ts

    and the always use wayyy to much miwadi so it dries the back of ur throat

    I mostly go to clubs anyway, so just have one or 2 drinks then dance for the rest of the night
