Sugary Drink Battle Royale Redux!!!!
Because I thoroughly screwed up the last poll, some of the contestants that were left out have petitioned for a more inclusive rematch. Not that Dr Pepper has to worry about its title, but I'll indulge them.
 If you drink a local brand, choose the option that is most close to the variety of local brand you drink. Same with national generics (Mr. Pibb, et cetera).

A sugar-free Coca-Cola for example would count as Coca-Cola yes.

What the hell? Last thread had a million (give or take a few) people bitching about the lack of root beer and ginger ale and now they only have one vote each.
And what is making people choose "other"? I really would like to know. And I'm not too worried about The Doctor losing to The Dew. You just wait until 7 or 8 o' clock comes around in the East coast and we'll see how long The Dew's lead lasts. Right when a bunch of Dopers get off work. The Dew's lead won't last through tomorrow.

If you're not going to list Mr. Pibb or Mello Yello, then just forget it.

I'm still flummoxed by the lack of diet on the list. I'd go:
1) Diet Dr. Pepper (tastes only a little like Dr. Pepper) 2) Diet Coke (tastes not very much like coke) (Diet Rite, which if I recall was the diet RC, doesn't rate a mention) But for sugary sodas: 1) Cherry RC 2) RC 3) Dr. Pepper 4) Coke ETA: I'm surprised that more than five people in the universe drink Mt. Dew. But then, I like parmesan cheese with either ketchup or soy sauce, so I'm not exactly a discriminating palate. PS: I think calling it "battle royale" will bias the poll in favor of RC: isn't it short for Royal Crown cola? Last edited by Dr. Drake; 10-01-2009 at 06:24 PM.

This is the third freakin' time I've had to type this. (Both looking at the votes and actually voting takes you to a new page. And I could have sworn that Firefox used to remember your form data on the previous page, but it doesn't any more. Am I gonna have to install a keylogger)
Anyways, sorry for the tangent, there. Let's see: I drink Sprite mostly, but not because it's what I like. No, because it is often the only caffeine free choice at most restaurants, besides plain water (which I can get at home.) A few will have root beer, but, unless I know it's a brand that doesn't sneak caffeine into it to try and get the drinkers addicted, I can't even have that. So, while I'll drink any other caffeine free soda if I can get my hands on it, my favorite is Sam's Cola. I'm really happy it's a choice, as most people seem to think of it as just a generic version of Coca Cola. Anyways, does anyone know how I can get my hands on a caffeine free version? Heck, I'd be happy to just find a place that consistently stacks caffeine free anything (non-citrus, of course).

I voted for Coke again! Coke is my all-time favourite, I would happily drink it instead of water all the time if it weren't so horrible for me/my teeth. I never get sick of it, never think it's too sweet, etc.
But I do love birch beer or a good root beer. I treat birch and root beer as treats when I get them, and drink them very slowly to savour them. Ginger ale is also awesome.

What the hell? The Doctor is in third? Behind Coca-Cola and Mountain fucking Dew? People actually drink Mountain Dew still? Coke I can understand, but Mountain Dew? Seriously? It's like breaking my mind trying to comprehend this horrible turn of events.

Come to think of it though, we don't keep it in the house. We keep Coke and Sprite around for occasional soda drinking or to offer guests. Coke is the perfect mixer for most things too. My guess is that those folks who tend to prefer alternative sodas, Dr. Pepper is the fountain soda of choice. Give us the option though and it's ginger or birch beer above all. PS: Pepsi is characterless swill. Last edited by NajaNivea; 10-02-2009 at 09:23 AM.

My real answer is Dr. Pepper but I could not refuse the temptation to pick Crab Juice.

Diet Mountain Dew is a real treat - especially if its Code Red.
+1 vote for Mountain Dew. Last edited by hobscrk777; 10-02-2009 at 02:59 PM.

Here, I'll go for an ice cold IBC root beer any day. Back home in Kentucky, however, it would have been an Ale-8-One, which is a fantastic caffienated ginger ale.
BTW, I'm in Mississippi, and we have Faygo in the stores here. I remember it being available in Kentucky as well.

I prefer Coke Zero but Kroger has a store brand called OH cola that tastes almost exactly the same at half the price.
