    What's your soft drink of choice?
    If you need a cool beverage and you're in the shop, what's your go-to?
    Mine's Coke Zero.
    Can't be doing with Red Bull (the stench!) or Lucozade...sure tis only red lemonade!

    Coke in the darkest red can with the good sugar, not the one in the milky red looking can.. some bottles can be good too although its hard to tell from just the label if its a nice batch or not.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,318 ✭✭✭✭Menas


    7up for me usually...but am going thru a Ginger beer phase. Its a very refreshing drink!


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 8,867 ✭✭✭eternal


    Pepsi Max.
    Coke Zero.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 1,104 ✭✭✭Niemoj

    You're after reminding me - shandy used be lovely on a hot summer day :)

    Nowadays it's a bottle of coke, but even then I'm trying to replace the bottle of coke with a bottle of water.

    Coke always tastes better in the glass bottles.
    And yeah, I drink a lot of water but it's nice to take a break and have some fizz.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,740 ✭✭✭chughes


    Coca Cola full fat. None of your Diets or Zeros, only the original is the real thing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,579 ✭✭✭charlietheminxx


    Cherry Pepsi Max.... I can't stop drinking it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,962 ✭✭✭r93kaey5p2izun


    Diet Coke usually but I also like a Cidona now and then.


  • Posts: 26,052 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Cream soda, sugar free, followed closely by Diet Coke.

    I hate the film that sugary drinks leave on my teeth.


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 12,548 Mod ✭✭✭✭Amirani


    Can't remember the last time I had a regular soft drink, I'm not really a fan at all. Sparkling water would generally be my go to if not having wine or beer.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 550 ✭✭✭beyondbelief67


    Mountain Dew or sprite


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,467 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    Coke mostly but if I had a lot of vodkas and coke the night before I drink fanta or sprite. Fan of lucozade too.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 8,579 Mod ✭✭✭✭Wilberto


    Usually Tanora, but if that isn't available, then I'd usually go for one of the following:

    Sprite
    Club Rock Shandy
    Red Bull

    Can you still get Britvic 55?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,344 ✭✭✭Diamond Doll


    San Pellegrino, lemon or orange.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,593 ✭✭✭theteal


    I go through a few pints of water per day and don't really go for fizzies but. . .


    last week I discovered that the shop behind our office sells club orange, and lemon, and rock shandy. Needless to say my sugar intake has seen a significant rise since!

    Not sure... pubs usually have it but no shops do any more. My corner shop used to do it in cans. :(


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 8,867 ✭✭✭eternal


    Cherry Pepsi Max.... I can't stop drinking it.

    I bought that recently but haven't tried it yet.

    Club Orange.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 736 ✭✭✭chillin117


    Ice Cold Iron Bru, Love it. I have never met anyone that likes it !


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,299 ✭✭✭spiralism


    Lucozade Orange. Love the stuff.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,033 ✭✭✭✭Richard Hillman


    I have been drinking the green coke lately because it was only 68 cents in Tesco. If not that, coke zero or Pepsi max.

    If I am out and about and am not carrying water with me, I'd get a lucozade sport or Powerade.

    Club rock shandy for me. See you are in Essex. There is a pub in Leyton stone, Irish bar on a corner, good grub, but it's the only place outside Ireland that I've ever seen Club been sold!

    Some fancy modern label on it now. When they stopped putting the foil around the cap that was it for me.:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,564 ✭✭✭✭whiskeyman


    Cavan Cola.


    If not, Club Rock Shandy.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,351 ✭✭✭NegativeCreep


    Club Lemon. Nothing better for the thirst. It's a delicious vodka mixer too

    Does anyone like the Light Stimulation energy drinks in Lidl? I have one most days to spruce myself up.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,747 ✭✭✭pawrick


    Prefer still water but feeling nostalgic I tried red lemonade for the first time in years recently and it tasted great, much better than I expected.

    If I'm mixing with ice cream I use club rock shandy or orange. I still call soft drink minerals but that seems to be rare these days along with ice cream floats.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 1,104 ✭✭✭Niemoj

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,691 ✭✭✭Lia_lia


    Very rarely drink fizzy drinks. But I do have a Coke the odd time (ordinary coke!) if I am very tired/hungover. Had one today actually, could barely stay awake at work.

    Also get the odd craving for Club Orange and I like San Pellegrino blood orange.
