Austrian supermarkets are excellent for various (flat) elderflower cordials. They seem to be popular. There are even "own brands" as well as nationally known ones like darbo. btw I tried the strawberry and elderflower which is new this year from Bottlegreen in the UK, and much preferred their cherry vanilla. Wasn't too impressed with their other new coconut one although I am sure some will like it.

For me, whenever I am back in Scotland, it is mandatory for me to drink IRN-BRU:D

Pepsi and yogurt flavour??? Gee, I wonder why that didn't catch on? :confused:

While waiting in line for Franklin Barbecue they walked past with a box of cold beverages- I tried the Big Red along with another FTer- twere interesting but very sweet. The wait was worth it though...

I agree. Amusingly, when I waited at Franklin's two girls came around selling coffee. Pretty smart too as it was 10 AM on a Sunday.

I did a search and was surprised that nobody in this thread has mentioned "Club Cool" (formerly "Ice Station Cool") at Walt Disney World. This is an attraction inside EPCOT Center (in Orlando), sponsored by Coca-Cola, that features a bunch of Coke brands from around the world. Free sample-size soda, and serve yourself!

Some of the flavors offered, according to Wikipedia:

Smart Watermelon (China) - A very refreshing watermelon flavored drink
Kinley Lemon (Israel)
Fanta Kolita (Costa Rica) - A very sweet cherry flavored soda
VegitaBeta (Japan)
Lift Apple (Mexico) - An apple flavored beverage
Mezzo Mix (Germany) - Coca Cola with a taste of orange
Beverly (Italy) - A very bitter non-alcoholic apéritif
Krest Ginger Ale (Mozambique)

I remember a Teem drink... where was that from...? It was once sold here in Argentina, but I doubt it was a pure local brand. Perhaps a discontinued Coke brand...? Or was it Team... cant remember the spelling.

Gingerino from Italy.....

Do you mean this:

It is a Pepsi brand. I remember seeing Teem in the United States as well, but I do not recall ever drinking it.

Dont have a picture, but had a Turkish drink in Allentown,PA at a Turkish restaurant 10 days ago. During Ramadam so that helped. It was a "yoghurty" milky drink with a salty aftertaste. Very refreshing. Sorry forgotten its name.

A HS friend went to the USSR in the 80's. She brought me back a bottle of Pepsi. (I collect bottles.) It was so weak you could almost see through it.

She also told me a funny story about the vending machines. Do you remember the kind that would drop a cup and mix the syrup, ice, and CO2 for a fresh cup of each time? You would take and enjoy the drink. In the USSR, the cup was tethered to the machine. You drank the soda and put it back for the next customer!!! YUCK!

Ah yes, ayran can be very refreshing with kebaplar (kebabs). A mix of water and yoghurt with salt, I've also seen a mint flavour in NY. Definitely a staple drink in Turkey, and can also be found in other countries in that region.

I do love the Spanish Fanta! It's great in a number of other countries, too, just not the U.S.

I had Kofola in Bratislava recently, it's similar to coke but with more of an anise flavor.

Hotlips soda from Portland, Oregon. I love the boysenberry!
