No mention of Jarritos?
Oh, one more God-tier soda I forgot to mention: Pennsylvania Dutch Birch Beer.
I would definitely put Sierra Mist above Sprite, mainly for the drinkability. It doesn’t have that ‘bite’ that they focused on in those old commercials when it first came out. lol.
I swear to fucking god, the study does not and was never intended to imply that every single participant liked both drinks equally–just that the participants were evenly split between one and the other. The operative factor in the tendency towards Coke in the non-blind tests is Coca Cola’s distinctive iconography, which engenders an emotional response independent of the actual flavor.
Which is why you so often get rabid Coke fans who treat Pepsi drinkers like they’re retarded, but so seldom the other way around. Pepsi is a live and let live soft drink for the live and let live soda drinker.
It’s soda, you know that right?
Cola Champagne is up there.
It’s a way of life
ALL HAIL EXTRA LARGE EVEN AT RESTAURANTS THAT OFFER FREE REFILLS
I sure hope it’s soda. I don’t want to know what everybody here has been unknowingly drinking if it isn’t.
Green Tea Sprite. It’s not commercial in the US but that shit is good.
Coco Rico is pretty tasty. In my nuoc mam.
Should probably take a couple other things into consideration, like taste differences with temperature and getting watery or slightly flat due to ice or time since you don’t always get super fresh cold soda. Example, Dr. Pepper fresh and cold rocks ass so hard but if it’s the least bit flat or anything but cold it tastes like wet dog ass. Sprite on the other hand is a pretty good soda fresh and cold but is still very drinkable if it gets a little warm/flat/watered down. If I fall asleep with a Dr. Pepper next to me I won’t touch that shit when I wake up since I don’t like vomiting on purpose but I’d finish off a Sprite in the same situation.
What the backwards shit is going through your mind when you say something like this? Glass > can version of any soda. It’s indisputable.
Also, anyone who’s nostalgic over Sprite Remix could just melt skittles and shove that down the shoot. They’re basically the same thing.
Also also, why are people top tiering Canada Dry Ginger Ale? Seagram holds the title for best ginger ale.
Also also also, in case no one has said it yet, “Who loooooves orange soda?”
I have the exact opposite experience with Dr. Pepper. I can’t drink a cold fountain Dr. Pepper, but a room temperature can Dr. Pepper is great. I think the real modifier is ‘flat or not flat,’ or maybe ‘watery or not watery,’ given fountain Pepper is awful.
Coke has all the same tools Pepsi does - just let Coke sit open for a couple of days so that it goes completely flat, and bam! Pepsi.
By that alone, Coke has the advantage in this match-up.
Doctor Pepper and Coke Zero are great, but Vanilla Coke is S tier.
Pour sugar into water, drink it through your nose while standing on your head, then cry yourself to sleep as you wonder how you ever sank so low in life.
Bam. Coke.
Plastic Bottled Chinese Coke is the worst.
Guys should add Glass, Plastic and Can to the lists to clarify. Some drinks are so good but only in glass.
Yeah, but at least there’ll be a decent amount of carbonation and fizz going through our noses. Have fun sipping that flat cesspool-dwelling simple syrup of yours.
Do they even sell regular Sierra Mist anymore? If not, just rename Sierra Mist on the tier list to Sierra Mist Natural and bump it up to top tier. Using sugar instead of high fructose corn syrup = godlike.
