Coke is my thirst quencher, but it’s for special occasions only right now.
Old fashioned fountain cokes - where the server dispensed and hand-mixed the soda water and coke syrup ( from a pump - and you could ask for extra syrup …) are the stuff of sweet memories. My mom was a particular fan.

Lemon Coke, Lime Coke, Black Cherry Coke. The Elmwood Pharmacy on College Avenue in Bezerkely always had one flavor or another that was perfect for washing down an egg salad sandwich. I can’t drink anykind of cola nowadays, they hurt my teeth.
Right now I am finishing up a diluted can of no sugar Squirt.

LOVE squirt. I miss it.
Right now: my nightly cup of decaf Earl Grey.

Weekday dinners are paired with either a glass of cold milk or lemon flavoured mineral water. On the weekend I’ve been alternating between an NA beer or elderberry tonic water.
I usually order a mocktail when I dine out and a virgin mojito is my favourite. I would really like to learn how to make my own mocktails.
My after dinner drink of choice is herbal tea or hot chocolate.
It’s pretty much sodastream water all day every day. I’m content with non-flavored drinks, and always in awe at the abundance of powders and drops and syrups available for those who aren’t.
Mexicoke is a rare treat — most often had with a proper cheeseburger (just as rare), or tacos.
Back in Berlin, my groove is rhubarb spritz, available at many supermarkets. So tart, so refresh!
