Maybe it’s because it was my first drink after a 🏃‍♀️ in sweltering heat but boy did this taste and feel reviving!

Refreshing with just an ever so slight hint of shiso. Unsure why it’s berry red.

All the way from the Brönnimann Farm (the apple juice component that is), wherever it is.

They’ve boycotted Nestle and gone 100% local.

Unlimited refills! Your server refills your tumbler the moment it gets half-full with nary a request from me to do so.

Got 2 of these. So refreshing!

Did not want anything too sweet and this satisfied, more or less.

Refreshing, although I’m not sure the fresh lemon added very much to the experience.

I don’t generally go for Sprite (too sweet!) but in this case, it goes really well with the salty plum!

Really refreshing but really, really teeny tiny (< a cup) for $5.60. 🙄

Glad I brought this home to chill and drink. I don’t understand why I have to invert the bottle 🤔

Been AGES since I had an orange soda.

X2 for each order of mildly spiced curry, tom yam and mango salad 🥵

BRIEF: “Botanically cold brewing for 12 hours captures the essence of tea, ensuring what nature offers is not lost. Take delight in this cold brew boasting jasmine green tea with luscious Moroccan pink rose, tropical lychee, and a stream of sparkling goodness.” SOOT’S TAKE: I expected this to be cloying but it wasn’t. Quite pleasant actually with ice and refreshing with the carbonation.

Priced like a highway robbery. 😱😖

Carbonated soft drink with extract of white elderberry flowers. Quite pricey for the bottle size.

BRIEF: “From the best organic lemons grown in Sicily comes Galvanina Sparkling Lemon, famed for is extremely intense flavor. This intensity recalls the island’s fragrances and its warm sunlight and is further enhanced by the pulp of citrus fruits, a taste sensation released at every sip that adds body and consistency to this soft drink.” SOOT’S TAKE: Got this to substitute English lemonade for mixing Pimm’s cups, but it’s also good on its own.

Came along with the meal. Also the cult drink of many an Austrian childhood, apparently.

BRIEF: “Galvanina Pomegranate has a refreshing, sweet yet tart flavor thanks to the use of the best organic fruits that grow in the Mediterranean Basin, caressed by the sun and sea breezes. Galvanina Pomegranate is also enriched with the sweet notes of black carrot juice that further defines its character.” SOOT’S TAKE: Actually got this in lieu of pomegranate juice since the latter wasn’t available for an iced tea I planned on making. Since I didn’t use all of it toward the tea, I got to try some of it neat. The soda itself is nicely fruity and refreshing.

BRIEF: “You don't need to die to be born again. Zesty white grapefruit. Fragrant holy basil. Salivation.” SOOT’S TAKE: Refreshing and the holy basil makes it a little more special.

Gotta to try this soda since it seems ubiquitous here. I like it. It’s refreshing, not too sweet and hence is deserving of its “THIRST CRUSHER” label.

Thank you SUBWAY for making available my favorite soda which is to be found nowhere else here!

BRIEF: “BLENDED WITH CRISP APPLES & sparkling water. DELICIOUSLY TART” SOOT’S TAKE: Deliciously refreshing. I love that it’s not too sweet, just barely so.

Solid!

Wow, this was quite the experience, one that I would describe as whimsical, novel and just fun to drink. For some reason, it also felt nostalgic for my construct of a Japanese childhood.

Excellent salve to Sichuan-style heat. This one’s for @thegeneral 🥤

Letting my seltzer freak flag fly today as I enjoy this perfectly balanced grapefruit soda. & today also feels like a salmon-colored day.

With a sprig of Rosemary for an interesting addition of flavor. Refreshing!

There's something about drinking ginger ale on a flight that makes it taste so much better.
