Very rarely, less than once a month.

Water, wine, beer in that order.

Was never allowed to have any growing up, which has resulted in that I still can't stand the taste of most of them. Might have a grape Nehi every year or so but it has been several years since I've been anyplace that they are sold. Damn I miss North Carolina.

Seltzer with a squeeze of lemon or a little juice. Or both!

I'll have a Malibu rum & coke every once in awhile.

I'm from NC too. My son misses Cheerwine, but...we are starting to see it in a few grocery stores here in Florida. I had peach Nehi when I was a little girl & lived in Gerogia.

There's a place in Minnesota that sells grape Nehi. I've had some there.

I also drink primarily water, wine, and beer in that order. Despite my Nehi episode, I probably drink pop (or soda, for those who don't know the right term) four or five times a year.

I call it diabetes juice

Water, Diet Soda, and Crystal Light - I save my liquid calories for various alcoholic libations.

I wish I could get some Birch Beer here in SC. I buy it when I travel to Buffalo. It's a soft drink and it makes good birch beer floats.

rarely here. I drink water when we go out, unless I have a long drive and am grasping at any form of caffeine. Otherwise only when I have a headache/migraine coming on.

good man.
Though I'd insert fresh fruit or veg juices before beers!

I am already fat...if I put soda on top of this, the earth would rotate around me.

You could always order some Birch Beer online.

LMFAO
No soda, only the freshest natural juice! But water from a good natural source can is the most wonderful drink known to man, wine included!

Water, home-roasted espresso, microbrews, wine. (Dang, I didn't think I was THAT much of a snob!!!) And I actually do drink club soda or seltzer when I want something bubbly.

Thanks for the site!

Not in 8 or 9 years. Water, wine, whiskey, beer, not necessarily in that order. Although, I love sparkling water with a lime; is that a soft drink?

My pleasure! I was actually looking for a brand of Birch beer that I used to drink as a child. I thought it was Vernors or Cotton Club. I couldn't find either of those but stumbled onto that site in the process.

I used to drink about a 12 pack of Diet Coke a day. I decided to cut out as many artificial ingredients from my diet as possible, and quit soda, for the most part, about 6 months ago. Sometimes I will drink a Sierra Mist, but mostly I stick with water. I wish there were more options for natural fizzy drinks. Especially ones that are made with real juice. None of the ones I have found, so far, including Sierra Mist, have juice.

Arrowhead makes a sparkling water that is flavored. What's interesting about it is that the flavor is in the CO2. No sugar, no color, no anything except flavored bubbles. It's really refreshing. I've seen orange, lemon, and pom.

I probably average about 1 a week. Typically coke or Dr. Pepper.
I find the small 100cal cans are perfect with a glass and ice.

Other than that, water and unsweetened ice tea by day and beer or wine by night.

You, my Brit friend, would LOVE the Sandhills of Nebraska if that's the case. I actually look forward to going up there to drink A) Water B) Tea C) Coffee

It's just the best water ever. If I ever get wealthy I'm moving up there and opening a brewery.

you should get a Soda Stream and make your own syrups. We sell these at my other job and sample them all the time. Not bad actually. I wouldn't buy one cause soda isn't my thing, but not bad.

HAH, pom, that says pom. I was gonna say, yeah I've seen that too.

Also, since I'm shilling True Lemon is awesome stuff in tea, it'd probably be great in sparkling water also.

It's crystallized lemon, taht's it, that's all. Tasty stuff in drinks/baking/cooking. They have lemon/orange/lime and I think Lemonades. I don't remember. Been awhile since I got it. You can most likely find them in your grocery store, but around here it's pretty schizophrenic as to where they actually put them on the shelf.

Another NC native here. I don't drink Coke (that's what we call all sodas in the South - eg..
"Do you want a Coke?"
"Yes"
"OK, we have Sprite or Rootbeer"),
but I will have a Cheerwine when I'm back home in the Old North State.
