beer?

ill have to go with can because even though i really like fountain cups whenever i get one i have to feel like im getting a good deal so i always get a 44+ and then i just spend the rest of the day feeling fat

glass bottle

Always glass bottle.

McDonald's fountain diet coke.

Coke zero in a can.

Big Red in a bottle.

WHO CARES! I'm thirsty. Gimme the friggin soda!

Coke in a can is by far the best BUT... you must not drink it out of the can. Start with a refrigerated can or one that is on ice. Fill a glass with ice. Wait, not just any ordinary glass, it must be a 24 ounce Tervis Tumber - the greatest drinking apparatus since the beer hat. When full with ice, extract the can of Coke from it's cold storage and begin the pour. It will fizz, a lot. Let that die down and finish filling the TT with the soda. It should fill to just below the top.

Once full take a good swig. It's the absolute best.

Ya see, Coke in a can is just too carbonated. It's great if you need that throat/bubble pain to wake you up in the AM but by pouring the Coke over ice, it releases exactly the right amount of carbonation to give it the perfect fiz content.

Fountain Coke can be absolutely great but it depends on the dispenser having the proper Brix and most places don't even know what a brix is. I'd say that McDonalds has consistently the best Coke.

Coke in a glass bottle is very good and seems to not have as much carbonation as a can. Because of that, I don't mind drinking it right the bottle, but not them plastic ones.

I love the "speciality" sodas that have become increasingly accessible.

Right now I'm addicted to ginger beer...
I don't know if it counts as soda, but it just tastes so darn good.

Favorite soda though is CUCUMBER SODA.
Yeah, you heard me...sounds disgusting, but no! Greatest. Soda. Ever.

Try one.

Straight out of a 2-liter.

Ya got that right. Never run out of your favorite flavor again!

(Although I do wish they'd come out with a strawberry syrup, and start putting the grape in retail stores...)

Hello - Joe buzzkill here. Article in today's New York Times (http://opinionator.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/01/22/coke-blinks/ ...
I've been off the sauce for years now.

Plastic bottle with a twist top so I can save some for later if I want. Flavor wise a can of coke is the best unless you can get the retro-glass bottles and put some Planters peanuts in the bottle.

It's pop. And then fountain.

Seriously though, the guy who invented it called it pop. Show some respect!

phoenix5x wrote:soda stream rulez

Have you found any source of flavors that aren't either full of artificial sweetener or cost more than just buying regular sodas?

Yep, around here, we call it "pop".

I used to drink a lot of Diet Coke, but have since cut back to just enjoying it occasionally. Should cut back completely. Would usually get the bottle, because I could reseal it

I don't drink soda. As a native Pittsburgher, I always drink POP.

Coke in a glass bottle. I miss those days!

Champagne flute. Wife: Would you like a little bubbly? Me: Why yes lovie.

So true! Let those pretentious soda-suckers have it!

I use my soda stream, but i only drink seltzer anyway. but i do LOVE my soda stream. endless supply of fizz

Fountain FTW!

And Coca-Cola Freestyle machines give you some bad ass selection. 100s of flavors out of a single machine!

I had to select "other" since there was no "all of the above".

I typically don't drink soda unless it has Rum in it....so....I take mine in a glass....or Red SOLO cup.

Dublin Dr. Pepper

...and the internet was invented to share important information across the world, but here we are fighting in a room over soda/pop and looking at cat videos.

I agree with this almost exactly (down to the Tervis tumbler), but substitute Dr Pepper as my soda of choice. If available, add a couple of pumps of vanilla syrup.

That said, I drink hot and sweet iced tea every day, but I have a soda only every 3-4 weeks.

Bring back Dublin Dr Pepper! That was the only non-diet soda I would drink.

in a glass with ice and a straw.

Glass bottle has the best taste

Fountain is the cheapest.

Sodastream...
It rules because you can concoct your own flavors, as well as their pre-made flavors.

I make a nice spicy ginger flavor, kinda like Reeds, only with more of a bite.

It's not soda. It's POP.

Also, Mexican Coke ( in the glass bottles) FTW. Though drinking it always makes me want to play Fallout for some reason...

Pop not soda

I chose other because I like it in a glass with ice and mixed with bourbon, whiskey, etc.

Glass bottle is best.
And for extra kick a glass marble inside too.
As for flavors...melon is great.

Why bother with Soda when you can have beer. Of course I like a good Micro brew or a beer from the local brew pub myself. Forget the mass swill.

Agreed

LOVE our Soda Stream ... hope Coke starts selling their syrup one day!

Why so little love for cans? Metal seems to keep the soda colder!
