    Cherry coke all day long.

    Also, there used to be an orange drink called Smack sold here back in the 80's. Which was nice.

    Massive cherry Coke fan too.

    You are thinking about Smak, it came in a long slim can like the red bull can. There was orange, white lemonade, pineapple and maybe Cola. Pineapple was my favourite. I used to get it a few years ago under a different name.

    McDaid's Football Special is where it's at. Was so refreshing poured out of a glass bottle.

    No ,
    you will only get this in BM bargains in the UK or NI. ASDA used to stock it but it never took off. Cott beverages in Kegworth
    manufacture this exclusively for BM cott used to make the rip off Coke that Dunnes Stores used to sell in the late 90s. I used to work in a factory in Dublin that bottled Dunnes Stores cola on behalf of Cott the ingredient was imported from the USA.

    Remember the Dunnes slogan

    'If you can't taste the difference why pay the difference'

    That Freeway one in Lidl is really good for the price.

    Kind of went off it when it stopped being fives times the caffeine than your normal cola. Still is better than Coca Cola, though!

    Full fat Coke here. Diet coke tastes like pish. Caffeine free coke tastes like watered down pish and Coke zero tastes like watered down pish with sugar in it.

    Don't really have a preference between Coke and Pepsi. I pick up the one that's closet to me. But any other brand of cola is pure sh1te. Mad that in over 100 years, still only two companies can perfect the flavour

    Wow, no love for RC. Classic Coca Cola can't be beat, but RC would be my second choice.

    I find that regular cola cleans the toilet bowl better than diet cola.
    So regular cola.

    I don't really drink soft drinks much at all.
    I generally don't buy any coca cola products since finding out about their human rights record
    See www.killercoke.org

    There is always one...

    Had a 3L a day Full Fat Coke habit till my doctor told me I had Metabolic Syndrome from it after a blood test. Kinda like pre-diabetes.

    Hated Diet Coke and didn't really like Coke Zero but needs must.

    After one day on Coke Zero, it was coke zero that tasted like real coke to me and thbe real stuff tasted like sickly sweet syrup. Couldn't stomach the real thing after only a day.

    Effectively cut 1200 calories a day from my diet by giving up the real stuff. When the metabolic syndrome abated the excessive thirst and urination abated and my consumption of the coke zero then naturally reduced to about 1.5L thus cutting my caffeine intake in half.

    Switching to Coke Zero has been nothing but positive for me. I was about 20Lbs overweight and lost 14Lbs of that within a few weeks. It stopped there because I started eating more actual food to replace some of the calorie deficit.
