No sir - wheat ale, served about 2C would be excellent.
I used to when I was a kid. Too sugary now! I used to drink Chek drinks from Winn-Dixie when I was a youngster. I always liked the Grape flavored. Reminds me of bbq's and going down to Payne Creek in Bowling Green FL with my dad.
Now I drink usweetened ice tea with lemon or a lager.

+1 on the too sweat and too many suger carbs. I love homemade lemonade with splenda (low carbs)

nowadays I add at least 1/3 water to my my juice to cut the sweetness. Some enterprising person should introduce a line of carbonated soft drinks that contain 1/2 the sweetners. Call it Coke Dry or something

I do that with all the juices I drink:
Apple, orange, grape and stuff like Juicy Juice....etc.

Too sticky and sweet. No good.

They did, it was called Coca-Cola C2 and there was also Pepsi Edge. I believe they both flopped. I never was a fan of Orange cola, but Red Rock Ginger Ale is what I crave on a hot summer day.

Only with a pack of "Toms" brilliant orange cheese crackers!

I don't have a hankering for weak-flavored, sugary weasel wee.

7UP is about the most natural commercial soda you can buy in the US. It contains very little HFCS, no dyes, no artificial sweetener, and no artificial preservative. If only they'd substitute the HFCS (it's cheap and that's why they use it) with plain old sugar.
Yes, a couple of years ago they stopped adding sodium benzoate to 7-Up. It was all natural in Europe as far as I can remember but here they still put preservatives for some reason.
Even if they still use corn syrup, I would be happier if they reduced it by half, added more lime and doubled the fizzy-ness. Now that would be the perfect pop.

7UP cearly states in ingredients there are "no fruit juices". No one in their right mind would ever think there's any real orange juice in Sunkist!

I usually drink 7-Up or Coke if I want pop. My carbonated drink of choice is tonic water, though.
I only like it when it's really hot, 85 on up. Other than that, I don't care for Sunkist...

My first post in months.... but in the summer, it calls for a G&T.
Polar Orange Dry goes well with ice cubes. Has a few % pulp and juice.
Skyy blue malt beverages... lemonade, vodka, sugar, and bubbles, are tasty. Trying to reverse engineer the recipe. Yeah booze is not the best when you're dehydrated but one is yum.
