It's either Coke or Pepsi, if it's neither what do you drink?

When I used to drink soda, it was Coca Cola. Pepsi appealed to me when I was a kid. It was too sweet. I've known too many people that were addicted to that Pepsi crap, and Mountain Dew also. I stopped drinking soda and beer in 2013. Don't miss either. As an adult, I see what damage drinking soda constantly can do. It's garbage. There is nothing in soda that the human body needs.
 

Coke Zero if I can get it…but I drink Dr. Pepper ‘cause I’m proud. I’m part of an original crowd. And I meet other Peppers, everywhere I go. I’m a Pepper, she’s a Pepper, he’s a Pepper, they’re a Pepper…wouldn’t you like to be a Pepper, too?

Kind of a cult following, really…and strange commercials these days!

 
On the rare occasion that I drank soda, I drank Diet Pepsi. Several years ago now, maybe 15 or more, it tasted like Pepsi changed their fake sweetener. I had to relent and drink Diet Coke. It doesn’t have that fake taste. I haven’t consumed any soda probably in 5 years. I was told to drink more water, so I switched.
 
I know it is not good for me but my last remaining bad habit is Coke (ice cream doesn't count). I have cut down though and only drink one or two 16 ounce bottles a day.

 
Drank occasional caffeinated cola drinks growing up. That and other sweet soft drinks helped rot out teeth for a whole generation. As young adult would hang out more at coffee shops versus alcohol bars. After at age 20 suffering a rare type of aneurysm, have totally stayed away from any caffeine much less common cardiovascular system affecting rec drugs.
 
I grew up drinking Pepsi. Later in life I tended toward Coke as it was more common, especially in restaurants. At this point in life, I buy both of them, and sometimes mix them together! If I can find RC Cola (not very often), I will throw that into the mix as well. You can call them pop or soda or soft drink, I am okay with any of the terms. My most common drink during the day, hot (with cream and sugar) and iced (plain), is good old (Lipton) black tea. As far as sweetened drinks go, cola or tea, they are disgusting!

I drink sweet iced tea the most. Occasionally I will drink Classic Coke.

The best Coke is Mexican Coke in a glass bottle which is bottled in Mexico , made with cane sugar ,and imported to the US. We can get it at Mexican restaurants.

I never drink anything with artificial sweeteners.

I find my Mexican Coke at a restaurant supply store called Gordon Food Supply. There might be an outlet in your area since they have a distribution hub in NC.

It's too expensive at the grocery if they even carry it. Walmart did for a while at a good price, but I don't see it anymore at mine.
