What's your favourite caffeinated soft drink?

tea and coffee

well they are better soft drinks

tie between coke and mountain dew

I like guarana a lot, it's an Amazonian berry that has stimulant properties like caffeine w/out some of the side effects, besides the fact that it has a nice taste all on its own.

Coke or Mountain Dew

Moxie! All the caffeine, none of the sugar.

On a more mundane level, Mountain Dew is cool. Also some of the better root beers are caffeinated. Barq's springs to mind.

DIET PEPSI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If I had to choose one ... Pepsi. I drink mostly water these days, though.

Diet Pepsi all the way!

I didn't know Mountain Dew had caffeine.

SueBee: there isn't much else in it.

I picked Diet Pepsi too. Diet Mountain Dew and Diet Coke are good too.

Doesn't Mello Yello have caffeine in it also?

I usually don't drink sodas on a regular basis. Every once in a while I do like having a root beer.

Sprit and Sunkist.

By "soft drink" I meant what Americans call "soda". The curse of cultural non-equivalence strikes again

Maybe I'll do another survey on hot drinks (tea, coffee etc.) But then, how do you classify iced tea.....

msgman.. I am american and I do not call it "soda"... I am from a part of the country that calls it "pop".

If I'm gonna do serious caffeine, Jolt is preferred. But hard to find. Mostly I avoid caffeine as a regular thing, so that when I need it to hit, it hits...

Surge, the funk soul brutha'!

*holds a Diet Pepsi lovingly in her hands and whispers softly to it*

we come a long, long, way together
through the hard times, and the good
I have to celebrate you baby
I have to praise you like I should

Dr. pepper!

I drink Dr. Pepper don't ya know
It's the original taste that I love so
and the taste is making Peppers everywhere I go

I'm a Pepper
He's a Pepper
She's a Pepper
We're a Pepper(huh?)
Wouldn't you like to be a Pepper too?
Be a Pepper
Drink Dr.Pepper
Be a Pepper
Drink Dr. Pepper

they - I grew up calling it "pop", too, but there are now so many people in my life who call it "soda" that I've gotten into the habit. Must be a regional thing. I think all the people I know who say "soda" have moved here from other states.

mandy - I always thought that "(huh?)" line was "We're all Peppers".

Really? hmmmmmmmmmmmmm
That makes for a real mouthful when you try and sing it tho...

mit gas?

con gas!

Cherry Coke. Come on!!! It's the greatest!!! It reminds of getting Shirley Temples with my grandmother when I was little.

Always Coca-Cola

Iced tea. I avoid carbonated beverages due to the rather loud results they produce from my nether parts. Just wanted to share that with you.

msgman - I think in the States any served-cold clear beverage (well maybe not clear; I'm trying to distinguish between watery and milk-like) more flavorful than water that contains no alcohol is generally considered a soft drink, usually with an assumption of carbonation but not necessarily. I guess some people consider hot coffee and tea to be soft drinks as well, but I don't think it's the most commonly accepted definition.

ILJ: where are you from?

anon: I am from somewhere in the Northeastern United States.

ILJ: Do you guys have sweet iced tea there?

Mariah... my SO was quite upset to learn that iced tea is not sold pre-sweetened in Ohio when we went to visit my family... I had never even heard of it until I got to NC (but then, I'm not a big fan of tea).

they: I don't like tea, either. It makes me feel like a very bad southerner.

Mariah: I only enjoy pre-sweetened synthetic out-of-the-can Dupont-engineered iced tea. I know that "real" iced tea (a.k.a. cold brown water that somebody dunked some grass in) is probably better for my personal balance of natural essence and blah blah blah, but if it looks like brown water, and it tastes like brown water...well, I say give me the powdered Nestea mix any day! :)

I am a tea drinker. I do not drink coffee nor have I ever. I rarely have a cola drink. I love Hansen's herbal teas, in different flavors. I love green tea, herbal teas. I love lemonade.

Jeanne: Yum! Lemonade! But I don't like the pink kind.
