That product is a marketing stroke of genius. Sell half the juice at the same price by diluting it in half with water and market it as healthier.

I think I drank like two Pepsi max per day while in the UK last year. Cherry, Raspberry & regular. So good.

Bubbly is really just tap water carbonated with a soda stream with just a hint of awfulness for flavouring.

I find just club soda a totally enjoyable drink, more so than pop.
Bonus, club soda and vodka is a very calorie smart drink

If it gets my kid to drink more water and consume less sugar, then I'm all for it

Yeah, but that's my problem with Bubbly. If I want carbonated water, I'll just get a club soda. No need to add almost-flavour to it.

I was on team Coke for my whole life but about a year ago it all of sudden I started to dislike the taste of it, so now when i do enjoy a cola my preference is Pepsi.
I can still drink Coke if its the "Mexican" version in a glass bottle ie made with cane sugar.
Now Im waiting for my body to reject Pepsi.

forgive me if it was already mentioned.
new to this thread.
The best Coke/Pepsi book I've read was
"The other guy blinked:how pepsi won the cola wars" by Roger Enrico. came out in 1986
A mix of the autobiography of Roger Enrico who rose to be the longstanding CEO of Pepsi, and the cola wars, right up to where the new coke fiasco happened and pepsi finally overtook coke.
really an entertaining read.

Did they win the "cola wars" though? PepsiCo is a more profitable company, but that's a result of its diversity. Coke outsells Pepsi pretty significantly I think.
They won the conglomerate war it seems.

zevia cola. Sugar gets my eczema going, so I drink the zevia sodas.
Zevia tonic water with gin and zevia ginger beer with vodka for moscow mules.
If I drink a non-zevia soda it's the green can Coke.
regarding who sells the most, it was on under the influence this week. In quebec, it's pepsi all the way, but I believe the rest of Canada is coke.

Fair enough, I mean they tell parents to cut the apple juice or whatever with water anyway, this does it for them. Better than pure juice.
We just didn't buy juice boxes. I don't think my kid knew pop or juice boxes were a thing until he was in grade 2 or 3

The only pop I drink is A&W rootbeer in a frosted mug at A&W. I'm sure it's the same crap you can buy in stores but man does it taste good!

I've never been much of a pop person. Ginger-ale once in a while. For years my drink was gin and juice, but even orange juice is essentially pop. I switched to straight whiskey for a while, but I'm more of a beer guy.
But this stuff is awesome and I find mixes well with everything.
