    If you want a REAL treat, try a Dublin Dr. Pepper (made at the original plant in Dublin, TX). Unlike the mass produced Dr. Pepper products sold at 98% of the retailers, these are made with Sugar Cane instead of Corn Syrup and they tast AMAZING.
    Also, try the Mexican versions of regular sodas, if you happen to have a specialty store available. They make it with real cane sugar also. Jungle Jim's in SW Ohio has them around here. I can actually stand to drink Coca-Cola with real sugar.

    But my favorite is Sprecher's Root Beer and Cream Soda. Root Beer made by a real brewer, best stuff ever

      I can't remember who bottles Dr. Pepper around here, but I do know that it's not the same here as it is back at the "headquarters" district of my old store, and we used to get sale signs in the weekly sign deliveries that had to be thrown out because it didn't apply to us, and when it did, we had to make our own since none would be coming from the printers.

        Around these parts 7-Up is bottled on it's own. Dr. Pepper, A&W, Sunkist, Squirt, and Sundrop are in the 7-Up catagory, along with Snapple and Lipton teas.

        Pepsi is obviously Pepsi, with Dew, Hawaiian Punch, Mug, Seirra Mist, Tropicana, and Sobe.

        Coke is Coke, along with Sprite, Barq's (yum...but my store doesn't carry it ), and I think our Coke guys now supply us with either V8 or Campbells.

            You folks who get the Dublin DP suck, I've always wanted to try one of those....Drink one for me.

            Had Moxie and it was awful, infact one time the wife and I went to this little pizza place by my folks house called Bottleworks pizza ( http://bottleworkspizza.com/default.aspx ) you gotta check out the trainwreck they call a site. but they have like 5 coolers full of different soda and beer including one devoted to just rootbeers. So I've heard of Moxie and figured hell lets try it. It tasted like what a dog must taste when it licks its own butt. I tried it and it was horrible, so I grin and bear it and don't even flinch and offer the wife a taste (oh yeah I'm gonna pay for that later) she tries it and exclaims, thats fucking awful you asshole (by this point I'm laughing my ass off almost crying). So after we finish and go to my folks to pick up the kids we still have this almost full bottle left and figure, hell lets get dad to try it. He tried it and exclaimed "so thats what shit tastes like". Might be an aquired taste, but its not a taste I could ever aquire.

            Oh yeah and suicides kick ass....Just never, ever, neverneverneverever try and make a suicide with reminants from a bunch of booze bottles, you will regret it, trust me.

                That's what I have in my flask that I marked with a skull and crossbones. It's what I drink when I'm out of everything else and still want to get drunker.

                  AH! A Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster then!

                  Sounds like some of the fish tank parties I used to go to in college.

                  Fish tank party = get 10 gallon fish tank (sans fish and water) and everybody brings a bottle to empty into the above fish tank. When 1/2 full, start drinking.

                  Note to host - have both 911 and poison control on speed dial.

                    We always called the booze combos either jungle juice (this would be if you put in fruit juices/koolaid/etc and possibly fruit, if available) or hop skip and go naked (which involved hard liquor, beer, and lemonade). Ew.

                    And now I want a Slurpee suicide, dangit.

                        It's like there's a party in my mouth, and everybody's invited! And my phlegm feels looser!

                          I must not have gotten the invitation, though.

                            2 - Coca-Cola (and varieties), Mr. Pibb, Surge, Vault, Barqs, Slice, Sprite, Fanta, Mello Yello, Minute Maid, Seagrams...
                            That would greatly surprise me, as Slice was a Pepsi product. I say was because, as far as I know, they no longer make it, and have replaced it in their product line with the equally horrible Sierra Mist.

                            One I cannot think of is the Coca-Cola version of Sierra Mist. Can anyone remember the name of that?
                            Um....ever hear of Sprite?
