    I mostly drink some local store branded Cola that’s made by company from my country. It’s cheap as fuck and actually tastes better than any big brand cola.

        Aldi here in Benelux has the “River” brand. That is what we buy.

        Agrum soda is big here (grapefruit flavor).

        They have very good tasting zero sugar drinks:

        • Ice Tea (uncarbonated, this is our absolute staple)
        • Cola
        • Agrumes

        Then they have sugar versions of

        • Tonic
        • Green Tea (Lipton green knockoff)
        • Bitter lemon
        • Cola
        • Lemon Lime
        • 4 lemons
        • agrumes
        • orange (fanta)

        Quite the range, massively cheaper per liter than name brands, and small cans except for the ice tea to help not drink too much.

        Not sure if it’s the same, Hofer (Aldi?) has “River Cola” in my country. It’s not terrible, but it has a mildly watery taste which is not my favorite when I need a strong sugary fix hehe. The one from local store chain, they really nailed the taste. It’s not zero variant, but they use some sweeteners and regular sugar and they got the balance just right. And it’s like 1/4th of the Coca Cola price or something. I haven’t got one from Lidl recently enough to remember how it tastes and same goes for one from Italian Eurospin.
