Nokian Brewery’s Sun’s Cream Soda. Absolutely delicious.
Faygo. Northern Midwestern US soda
No love for chinotto?
Birch Beer. Not all the time but when I crave it, it hits the spot.
Birch beer is great, give sarsaparilla a shot if haven't and you're into rootbeery flavors. It's a very similar taste.
I came here to say root beer but only because the others aren't as easy to find.
I just want to point out I thought this being in my homepage on Voyager was funny
They don't exist where I am now, but RC Cola, Dr. Pepper, Kroger Cherry Cola, and European Orange Fanta.
My new favourite that I can have is Vita Sparkling Lemon Tea!
Gingerale (prefer jamaican brands to canadian dry), Fayrouz (Pineapple flavour), and Dr Pepper.
I used to be a huge soda drinker when I was younger, but in my middle age I've almost entirely switched to seltzer with a little juice thrown in.
Dr. Pepper Zero Sugar
the blackberry one is my favorite so far
IRN BRU

Club Mate

Mrs. Stewart's Cream Soda.

Anything ginger (ginger ale, ginger beer, spicy, not spicy) as long as it's fizzy. Not all the time, these are treats.
Most root beer. A&W is solid. There's one I don't like with perfume undertones.
We make our own seltzer and it's my favorite. But any ice cold seltzers will do.
If I'm in a restaurant and craving soda, I get a coke or diet coke.
In the US South, an ice cold Cheerwine made with cane sugar in a glass bottle.
I like sodas that are off the beaten path, so my favorite is Belvoir Rose & Elderflower sparkling lemonade. It's the perfect summer treat after coming inside from the heat. It's fantastic even when it's watered down, or mixed into a cocktail, or if you add it to lemonade, but it's great just on its own. I love floral and herbal flavors and it's just lovely.
My other favorite would be Reed's Ginger Ale, one of the few ginger ales you can buy made with actual ginger. It comes in several "strengths" and I like them all.

Dr Pepper pre-aspartame (or HFC).
Solo out of currently produced drinks.
Sparkling water
I’ve been craving a soda. I think I’m gonna take this as a sign to have one. Recently I’ve been making simple syrup and adding it to club soda. Today’s soda will be mint flavored
Sunkist Orange
Real Sugar Coke in a glass bottle by Coca-Cola.
Other than that, some fastfood places have their fountain coca-cola formulas mixed just perfectly so that its on-par with the aforementioned, sometimes even slightly better, but those fountain versions is not consistent and sometimes it could be worse depending om the day and probably depending on how fresh the syrup is. (Because sometimes I feel like its pumping out the last few drops of the cola syrup)
Kofola is cola with herbal taste, made in Czech Republic and Slovakia.
Bawls
Tap for my fav ad they did
Zevia cola
Dr. Pepper!
Pepsi Max
Diet Dr Pepper if I'm visiting America
Diet cokehead here!
I drink water too. And if a restaurant tries to sneak me a diet pepsi, I ask them to bring me iced tea.
Probably ginger beer. I'll even squeeze some lime in there if I want a Moscow mule hold the Moscow.
Birch beer and ginger beer. Both non-alcoholic.
When Rocket Fizz had a location here, I tried a ton of stuff but those were my favorites.
Does Polar seltzer count?
Kolashanpan - Salvadorian soda that's a unique flavor I have a hard time pinning down. Kind of like a orange vanilla bubblegum mix?
Mnt. Dew Baja blast - a more lime flavored Dew
Dr. Pepper - the OG favorite
IBC cream soda - when the craving hits once in a blue moon
Water
EDIT: Unless I'm on a plane, at which point the answer is ginger ale
I hate that it's often associated with a specific type of person, but I like the flavor of Mt Dew.
Cream soda, and root beer. Then probably (non-alcoholic) ginger beer.
It's not as easy to find, but I love birch beer.
Someone mentioned Kolashanpan, I'll also throw Vimto in the mix. Both drinks of the gods.

I love weird and wonderful things. In Switzerland they have Rivella, made with milk whey. Deliciously refreshing.
In Czechia they have Kofola, the BuyEU poster drink. It looks like a cola drink but the taste is fairly different in a good way. They have cherry and lemon variants too!
I had the most delicious coconut flavoured fizzy water in Lanzarote, the brand name is Firgas, I believe it is a Canariense brand.
Japan has Calpis, don't mind the name because this stuff is insanely good! It's a tangy yoghurt based drink. The Korean equivalent is Milkis, equally delicious.
Talking about Korea, Lotte makes a pine bud drink (sorry can't link to that one!) and it's such an unusual and refreshing drink I really recommend it. They also have sikhye which is a drink made of fermented rice (amazake in Japan, jiuniang in China). And on the topic of rice drinks, Woongjin morning drink is superb, it's a bit pricey outside of Korea but so worth it.
Now for the number one in my heart, the drink I could inject in my veins because I like it so much is Liptonic. It's a fizzy ice tea and it's a crime it's not available everywhere.
Back when I lived in N. Carolina, there was a local brand called "Dr. Enuff." Loved that stuff.
Sugar cane juice! (Comes in a can, does that count?)
Honorable mention: coconut la Croix.
Love me some canned static
Coke zero > pibb zero > dr pepper zero > diet coke >>> diet Pepsi
I'm on the last day of a business trip and seem to be deep in Pepsi territory (first time I've ever even seen Starry.) Diet Pepsi is OK, but I'm hoping there is a coke vending machine on the other side of airport security at this small airport.
Starry used to be Sierra Mist if you’re familiar with that.
I read this question and immediately started craving a diet coke lol
