Of the Coca-Cola beverages that contain sugar: Cherry Coke, followed by normal Coke.
Those without sugar: None, they all taste fucking awful - although since I stopped having sugar in my coffee I can tolerate Diet Coke now.

Of the Pepsi beverages that contain sugar: do they even do anything other than normal Pepsi?
Those without sugar: Cherry Pepsi Max, followed by Pepsi Max - although I've only been able to tolerate these since the no sugar coffees.

Of other colas: Fentimans Cherry Cola, followed by Fentimans Curiosity Cola.

Overall, I'd say I enjoy Cherry Coke the most.

The Ginger Pepsi Max is very nice, but only one place near me sells it, so I usually have Cherry Pepsi Max instead. Failing that, I'm not all that fussy - Coke Zero or Pepsi Max is fine.

Ginger is the closest I've ever gotten to the heaven that was Pepsi Holiday Spice that they released at Christmas in the U.S many moons ago but never made it again. It was odd, having ginger and pumpkin spice and cinnamon in it but God it was good.

Coke Zero vanilla is my favourite from that family.
Pepsi Max is better though with occasional Cherry or Raspberry versions for variety.

I love sweet fizzy drinks.

Cherry Coke, and Dr Pepper are probably my favourite as the 'special treat to myself' kind.

Same. Now that I don't drink smoke etc fizzy drinks are for sure my vise. Sadly with 150 steps over 6 flights I no longer order them with my shopping. I learned quickly to lighten the shopping lol.

It is not.

Because it doesn't taste of cola.

On a pedantic note, the thread title is Beex Cola Challenge, but the QUESTION is which fizzy beverage is best. The answer to the actual question is home made ginger beer.

Then again, if the question is what fizzy drink do you drink mostly, as opposed to whast is your favourite, you could get a different answer again.
