SuperSoda - Appreciation of all things carbonated

[Vampyrvargfesten]

grapefruit jarritos is pretty good too

not as good as ting though... it's too... "refined"

all this grapefrute....

yeah.. hate the fruit, love the soda

[Solix]

Tried the Jarritos Mexican Cola today. It's alright, definitely has a certain Jarritos "taste". If it weren't for the real sugar, I'd choose corn syrup Coke or Pepsi over it. Luckily, I still have a couple 2 liters of Passover Coke from last year to tide my cola kick over till this year's.

Speaking of Mexican sodas, anyone know where I can find me a case of Mexican Fresca? Local LA area, online, or proxy would all be best. It's honestly in the top three sodas I've ever had and tastes nothing like the US version (in the best way).

some cool vintage pop caps (the kind with cork) I found recently :

Also, don't know if it fits here but couldn't think of a better place to ask. Anyone remember, know where I can find 'Chocolate Soldier'? It was similar to Yoohoo! only a little different, and the packaging is/was cooler. I used to drink it when I got donuts but the places around here don't carry it.

thanks!

Where are you located? I thinkk you can find them at select Dollar General stores, but they're getting rarer.

And you can also try contacting DPSU, since they own the brand, and try to request retailers that still stock the product, though it may be a stretch.

Blue Sky Jamaican Ginger Ale

Mountain Dew "throwback"

sorry for poor quality iphone pics

have a Cock n Bull ginger beer, Dr. Browns celery flavored soda, and a couple random root beers

root beer is to stout as ginger beer is to IPAs

[robbie]

Bought some Sprecher Red Apple Soda @ Mennards of all places yesterday. The 4 pack was 1.25, couldn't resist. It was pretty good, still prefer Sidral. It's inexpensive, plentiful, and all around better.

i think my fav is still dublin dr.pepper. soooo goood

[tac0tron]

Whar to kop awesome sodas in sd? I only know of Bevmo and i'm getting tired of their selection.

[setterman]

I don't understand the mass mexican coke following that exists.

I've only had it once. Reminded me of "Throwback Pepsi", and that's not a good thing.

Current soda's I'm drinking are 125th Anniversary Dr. Pepper, and Cheerwine.

ginger beer realness

very pleasant experience

Some Chicago/ Midwest region favorites

Must tries for any soda lover traveling through ( especially Green River!)

Sprechers Cream Soda/ Cherry Cola (best of the 3)/ some Rootbeer mixed in

Green River

...Sprechers Cream Soda/ Cherry Cola (best of the 3)/ some Rootbeer mixed in[...

Sprechers rules pretty hard.

If I'm going for rootbeer its usually Virgil's or Abita, but if I see a pack of Sprechers I'll usually grab it anyway.

[kvc06]

It's so cheap at Menards too

They usually have some sale where it's under $3 for 4

Im a huge fan of cream soda, whenever I see a new brand I try it...

Anyone have a recommendation of a great one? I guess you can't really mess up cream soda, or stray too far from what a cream soda should be (except jones, cant stand jones cream soda), but I'm sure you soda fiends can point me to something special.

I honestly don't drink soda ever anymore (except for ginger beer with whiskey/dark n stormy on occasion), but I have badass childhood memories of Dr. Brown's cream sodas.

All the Dr. Browns sodas, actually.

I assume they've been discussed in this thread at some point, but maybe not.

[FranklinCosgrove]

Why don't you drink soda anymore.

[youkinorn2]

Why don't you drink soda anymore.

Mostly for health, I guess...though it wasn't a conscious decision I ever made.

I drink a lot of coffee and as far as carbonated drinks go, I prefer beer

[Vampyrvargfesten]

galco's lives up to the hype

finally got dublin dr. pepper

og dr. pepper taste with the smooth flavor of cane sugar--

hell yeah

Same here. I'll get a diet coke when I have fast food or a slice of pizza on the go (1-3 times a month?) or maybe a Dr Brown black cherry if I hit up Katz's, but that's really it. Water, coffee and booze.

I've never mixed ginger beer with whiskey but that shit is happening ASAP.

[f50fan]

I tried the Virgil's Diet Black Cherry Cream Soda. Im not really a fan of cherry, but I figured it would be interesting. It was nothing special, just what you'd expect from mixing cherry flavoring and a light cream soda.

[Bash]

jarritos tamarindo. mmmm

[robbie]

Green River

I had some recently from a soda fountain, it was not what i was expecting at all. Very good , though I think i'd prefer it from a bottle, even a plastic one.

[Vampyrvargfesten]

love this

soooo smooth and tasty

moxie is wierd

it's that funky root

need to go back to galco's!

[JL77]

That Manhattan Special is crazy delicious. Most people can't get down with it though. Carbonated coffee is pretty weird.

[kiya]

Johan got me a Manhattan Special from BevMo last year and i couldn't believe how amazing it was. Seriously the best soda-like drink i've had in years.

I'm drinking one with lunch now and just came to post the same thing. The coffee flavor is much more sublte than I expected. It's delicious.

[JL77]

I feel like it's something that I would rather drink on its own, rather than with a meal.
