Hi! I’ve my anxiety that I’ve been quenching with sodas but I’d like to move away from anything America branded overall into some local alternatives. What are some soda alternatives 100% EU?
Fritzkola is german
I like Fritz though I’m not sure it’s available outside of Germany
It’s available in Paris and Amsterdam as well.
On my last bike tour of the Netherlands and Belgium I couldn’t find it but in my defense there was lots of cheese
It’s available in some places in NL, like bigger Albert Heijn supermarkets and some cafes, but not too many.
It’s available in hipster coffee shops in Scotland, at least …
Orangina is the first that comes to mind. Almost definitively French
Orangina is owned by Suntory Holdings. Suntory is a Japanese brewing company. While not American it is not European either.

Noooooo! My world is a lie
Freeway cola from lidl is surprisingly good and almost twice cheaper.
The one and only Cockta!
Rivella - Swizz soda Trocadero,. Zingo, champis, pommac, julmust, Loranga, Sockerdricka, Cuba Cola- Swedish soda.
Trocadero and julmust feels pretty unique
Trocadero mentioned!!!
The MVP of sodas. Still sad they they stopped making the soda bottle sour candies

- afri cola
- club mate
- Deit
- Gerri
- Sinalco
- RedBull
- Paulaner (They make my fav Spezi)
These are the ones I know and have tasted myself. My favorites would be Gerri who make my favorite orange lemonade by far, and Paulaner Spezi.
I don’t drink energy drinks often but RedBull tastes muuuch better than Monster to the point that the latter makes me nauseated.
Afri Cola is one that I don’t like but it’s an option and not completely horrible.Club Mate!!! Just don’t drink too many
Breizh Cola is a nice exact equivalent: https://www.breizhcola.bzh/
My preference goes for tap water obviously but alternatively I just use an organic concentrated soda juice (such https://www.bigallet.fr/produit/sirop-de-cola-bio/ ).
Does Apfelshorle count?
Sinalco, Spezi (different brands…) and Vita Cola from Germany.
Not a classic soda, but refreshing anyways: Bionade
It’s better to drink kvass and non-alcoholic beer from your local brewery.
or juice
MoleCola, from Turin, Italy. You can find it at Eataly shops.
Tirola Kola from Austria
