I love coke and vanilla coke. However my body has developed an intolerance for caffeine about 3 years ago so i can no long have it.

Try drinking water with lemon or cucumber slices in it, they give water a bit more of a refreshing flavor.

I used to love Pepsi but try to limit myself to one a week. When I drank a lot of pop (soda) it was between Pepsi, Sprite or Sussex Ginger Ale. I think Sussex is an East Coast Canadian thing but I would be lost without it.

GusGus- That sucks!!! :/ Any ideas why??

Courtney- I will definitely try that! I usually, if I must have water, turn it into lemonade with sugar and lemons haha. Never heard of Sussex, but those aren't bad options lol. Then again, no coke is really a bad option to me.

I usually look but have not found them that way. Def not at the grocers. Whole Foods has no HFCS. I don't like their line of that drink but I need to start sampling. We don't drink a lot of sodas.

Mainly teas and coffees and just ice water. I like unsweetened tea though just the way it is. I am sure the Seagrams at the grocer here has HFCS. I think I am going to hit the Mexican Grocery Store to set some aside.

You have to go to really small stores. We have a few local gas stations and small food stores that are family-owned. All of them have the ORIGINAL glass-bottled cokes! I absolutely love it.

I drank Mt Dew for almost 30 years and weaned myself off of it. I very rarely drink pop (soda, soft drinks, soda pop) and if I do it doesn't really matter what it is as long as it is very cold. It all tastes sort of yucky to me anymore.

GsdLoverr729 · 01-14-2013, 08:10 PM

Nothing worse than warm/hot cokes! What do you drink now??

**Lauri & The Gang** · 01-14-2013, 08:20 PM

I was a diet coke addict until I went through chemo and it changed my tastebuds. Couldn't STAND the stuff.

When I cam off chemo I decided to stick with the clear sodas - so I started with Sprite and then went to Sierra Mist (always diet).

Now I have a Soda Stream and I make my OWN sodas!! I mix the diet Lemon-lime (aka Sprite/Sierra Mist) with some diet Cran-Raspberry.

LOVE IT and saves a ton of money!!

I am not a huge pop drinker, but my absolute favorite is a coke with grenadine. This is, essentially, a cherry coke; I just like the taste of doing it this way a little better than I like just a can of cherry coke. I like some other kinds (root beer, vanilla coke, pib extra, etc.) but I don't drink any kind of pop often enough to say I love it (other than the afore mentioned coke with grenadine).

I actually really like hot tea. I also have a horrid mocha addiction that I'm trying to break.
