I need a new kind of soft drink! Suggestions??
I used to drink Pepsi and only Pepsi. Then I decided to go on a bit of a healthier kick and switched to Diet Coke and then Diet Sprite and 7-Up...but I think the aspartame gave me migraines so that was out. Then, and I know that I am very bad in terms of buying blue and I will try to fix it, I started drinking Sam's Choice Cola but I'm tired of that now and I can't decide what else to try.

I also can't make a poll. So, does anybody have any suggestions?

2. Is that a local/regional brand?
I'm going to look for it but I don't think I've ever seen it around my area...in NW PA.

But I do like Black Cherry.

4. Jones Green Apple Soda or Diet Coke with Splenda.
Regular Diet Coke is noxious, but Splenda takes like real sugar. (Diet with Splenda is in a grey box with a yellow swirl; don't confuse it with vile Diet Coke with Lemon).

And nothing beats liquid candy like Jones Green Apple Soda. :)

9. My new fav: Lipton Green Tea w/citrus
Not the diet, which has aspartame. I think you find this in the fruit juice section? It's not a soda or a fruit juice, so that may be a good sign :hi:

14. Try seltzer water.
Bubbly. No calories, no HFCS, and no crazy chemicals. I've found it to be a good replacement for soda.
