Sprite Fire and Sprite Ice.

Could get them in parts of Asia. Both had a similar taste to regular Sprite, but Fire had a spicy/gingery hot finish and Ice gave a cooling sensation to each sip similar to Tylenol CoolBurst

South of the 49th, we still have Vanilla Coke. Its good, but doesn't have as strong a vanilla flavour as the Canadain or Hong Kong versions I've had in the past

Canada-Dry when it comes to readily available brands. However, I always keep some Old Tyme Jamaican Style Ginger Beer on hand; also I really like Orangina.

That video I posted shows how to identify the coke with sugar instead of corn syrup.

Could well be. Basically, on top of being totally awesome, those cans were little death traps.

Any Jews out there know if there's a kosher grocery store in Calgary?

Edit: Sorry gargamel, didn't see your post but I will leave mine up to stress the importance of finding a kosher Coke.
No specific kosher grocery stores, but the Safeways in Glenmore landing and at McLeod & Southland stock a lot of kosher food. You're not going to find 'kosher' coke, because coke is already kosher. If you check the bottle it will have a little symbol, usually one of these:

I like them all really, as long as they are diet, except for cream soda and Dr. Pepper. I tried Diet Cream Soda Crush and Diet Dr. Pepper and they both lost quite a bit of taste. I am off pop now, but I typically stuck with Coke Zero.

used to love "The Poppe Shoppe" green flavour when I was a kid.


Then diet coke, til I learned about the Rumsfeld connection.


Now I don't drink pop.

Thanks I will have a look.

Coke is not kosher for passover to all Jews because some consider corn a grain. Coke does make a kosher cola and Photon's video shows how to find it. Yellow cap with a kosher symbol on it available around passover. The label still says it contains corn syrup but it is infact cane sugar.

Yes that's right. I didn't mean to imply the kosher coke didn't exist. I was merely implying that you're going to be hard pressed to find it in Calgary since it's kosher, just not for passover. Combined with the fact that Calgary doesn't have a very large jewish population.

I went to highschool in a Jewish neighborhood in Montreal. I'll just get my guy to throw in a few bottles on my next bagel shipment.

I really wish Calgary had more Jews so I could get a decent sandwich or pickle every once and awhile.

Clear fizzy limonade in the UK is tasty; I look for it in specialty shops all the time
