Looking for soda alternatives?!
I'm a soda junkie, mostly Cherry Coke, Cherry Pepsi and Mt!. Dew Code Red!. I'm trying to come up with an alternative to these drinks that:
- Doesn't taste like crap
- Hopefully offers some kind of caffeine
- Is lower in either straight up sugar or calories
- Does NOT contain aspartame, saccharine, or any other artificial sweeteners - sucralose is acceptable!.
I've already considered Coke Zero and Pepsi One, but considering I can't stand regular Coke or Pepsi, it didn't seem like much of an alternative!.
As with all my posts, please be respectful of the poster!. Thanks for your input!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Answers:
Perhaps Jones Soda would be more your style!. I'm not sure on the exact numbers, but it uses cane sugar instead of nasty processed stuff, if that makes any difference to you!. You can taste the difference, honestly!. If you want a decent soda, go with Jones or an independent brand!. See if there are any stores that sell weird sodas in your area!. You may find something great!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
