What is the thinking man's soda pop?

{insert irn bru and "im scottish" reference here}

something a kid would spit out immediately because of the strong characteristic flavor. indian tonic or some other chinin flavored drink i'd say.

Barrie's Red Cola!

Sparkling, Tasty and Refreshing. A great companion on any adventure!

*en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quinine

only one choice out there is Moxie. Thinking men like me aren't worth it when it comes to choosing all the kiddy "pop" this generation has, especially Coke, which actually used to be made with real cocaine in my days before it became nothing more than the literal sugar water we have today!!

is that oleander water you talking about?

*oledenlandia

>oledenlandia
no, but similar. just like oldenlandia, quinine is also a herbal medicine ingredient used in softdrinks, bittergourd would be another famous example.

A tonic... for my gin.
Also, thinking men do not call it pop, thqt nigger tounge

...

Birch beer

I can take or leave it.

Dr. Pepper with added vanilla and cherry flavoring from a fountain machine.

Nothing is better.

Root beer.

Mixed with gin.

I get that every time I go to a Subway, and it kinda tastes like a shitty version of pic related.

When they bring this shit back I might actually weep with joy

none obviously

Champ's Cola

I dunno, maybe NONE OF THEM?

For me, it's the diet mcchicken

tonic water + syrup + flavours of your choice

The "thinking man's" soda is one that you won't find in a store, but must get made fresh in a cafe -- Italian sodas. You get some sort of flavored syrup, like strawberry or vanilla, add ice and club soda, optionally add whipped cream and half and half, and call it a day. Not all cafes carry them, but enough of them do, and it is worth looking around town to see which ones will short you on the syrup or do a poor job of stirring the damn thing, and which ones know how to make it right.

Of course, you could make one at home, but I'd say it's not quite the same experience.

We all have to have one poison in life. I don't do drugs, I don't smoke cigarettes or even drink much of any alcohol. If I'm going to have one thing to slowly kill me, it's going to be soda.

RC Cola
>pop
And fuck off Wisconsin

Oh, and adding onto this, if you do decide to make one at home, make it with 7-up or sprite instead of club soda.

Cheerwine is the only acceptable answer

The only soda I'll stoop to.

Well, that sounds terrible.

I just fucking opened this thread to post this user

I would share one with you, but only if it ISN'T the pomegranate one

...

The thinking man's pop is mingus dew.
Did nobody here watch sealab?!

Like are you not directly referencing this?? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.

coca-cola in a glass bottle.

also this.

Dr Pepper is literally plebbiit: the soda

Fun fact: You can't find this flavor anywhere in Italy.

How is that relevant?

Nobody claimed you could.

Fuckin triggered

Thinking man thinking: water, carbonic acid, tons of sugar, artificial flavor .. hmm.
Nah, I'll stick to water.

Enjoy your diabetes you fucking degenerate.

THIS SHIT RIGHT HERE. I refuse to spend money on nice things or even necessities but this shit right here is worth every fucking penny. You guys need to stop making these goddamn threads and start drinking San Pellegrino

>not drinking artisinal colas

plebs

...

Robbaz? Is that you?

Coffee

...

Ginger ale

i got some throwbacks today a bubble up, a lemon, an orange & cream, and a glass bottle coke for slow cooking.

ginger ales and beers are great. post your favorites.

Dr. Pepper is the drink of intellectuals, OP

All other answers are objectively wrong.

what the fuck is that abomination

My nigga, vanilla is so fucking good

As someone else already said, the answer is ginger ale

It's Seagrams or nothin' for me
>i drink them at room temperature
AIN'T NO REST

this tbqh it seagrams also has 25% less sugar and calories then regular

Proper ginger beer.

...

Coke and Cherry Coke. The rest is irrelevant but good in their own ways.

came here to post this

>something a kid would spit out immediately because of the strong characteristic flavor.

/thread

>not Bebop Cola

I forgot that I wanted to import some mezzo mix until I read this thread.

I wonder if this guy actually drank all these.

Pepsi Co.'s 1893 Ginger Cola

desu baka sempai fambily teee beee acheay

Let me give you a tip if you want the real answer. I don't drink soda at all, but if a thinking man were to drink any sodas they would be, in no order:
Sunkist
Ginger Ale
Fresca

I think these two pretty much sum up any kind of soda a "thinking man" would drink.

If we're being honest with ourselves here though, the real "thinking man's" soda is probably gin or whiskey
