AMAZING
1st GINGER PASSION FRUIT SODA
Rollie Olie @ The Star Vista, Singapore
Maybe it’s because it was my first drink after a 🏃‍♀️ in sweltering heat but boy did this taste and feel reviving!
3rd APFELSCHORLE
Einstein – café & bel étage, Bern
All the way from the Brönnimann Farm (the apple juice component that is), wherever it is.
4th GASOSA TICINESE MANDARINO
Grotto Efra, Verzasca
They’ve boycotted Nestle and gone 100% local.
5th COKE
KHAO-SO-i Siam Paragon, Krung Thep Maha Nakhon
Unlimited refills! Your server refills your tumbler the moment it gets half-full with nary a request from me to do so.
6th RIBENA SODA
Family Food Court, Ipoh
Got 2 of these. So refreshing!
7th 100 PLUS
福满家美食阁(永平) FU MAN JIA(YONG PENG), Yong Peng
Did not want anything too sweet and this satisfied, more or less.
8th 7UP WITH SALTED LEMON AND FRESH LEMON 七喜咸鲜柠檬
Temple Street @ Midvalley, Kuala Lumpur
Refreshing, although I’m not sure the fresh lemon added very much to the experience.
9th SALTY PLUM SODA WITH SPRITE
Rasa Viet Kitchen Damansara Kim, Petaling Jaya
I don’t generally go for Sprite (too sweet!) but in this case, it goes really well with the salty plum!
10th SAN PELLEGRINO® ARANCIATA ROSSA
Lad & Co, Singapore
Really refreshing but really, really teeny tiny (< a cup) for $5.60. 🙄
11th BUNDABERG PASSIONFRUIT SPARKLING DRINK
GoFresh Market Signature SS2 (TRU MNS RESOURCES SDN BHD), Petaling Jaya
Glad I brought this home to chill and drink. I don’t understand why I have to invert the bottle 🤔
12th FANTA ORANGE
Guzman y Gomez, Singapore
Been AGES since I had an orange soda.
13th GREEN SODA | น้ำเขียวโซดา
Laai Thai Kitchen, Kuala Lumpur
X2 for each order of mildly spiced curry, tom yam and mango salad 🥵
14th GRYPHON® TEACO. PEARL OF THE ORIENT LYCHEE
Atas Sentral, Private Location
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.
16th TASSONI FIOR DI SAMBUCO
Hapiha Mediterranean Fast Food, Singapore
Carbonated soft drink with extract of white elderberry flowers. Quite pricey for the bottle size.
17th GALVANINA LIMONATA
CS Fresh The Star Vista, Singapore
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.
18th HIMBEER-KRACHERL RASPBERRY SODA
Brotzeit Westgate, Singapore
Came along with the meal. Also the cult drink of many an Austrian childhood, apparently.
19th GALVANINA MELAGRANA
CS Fresh The Star Vista, Singapore
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.
20th STRANGELOVE® HOLY GRAPEFRUIT
Charcoal Fish Rose Bay, Rose Bay
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.
21st SOLO ORIGINAL LEMON
Bambuu Vietnamese Grill & Noodle Bar, Randwick
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.
22nd CHERRY COKE
Subway, Singapore 138617
Thank you SUBWAY for making available my favorite soda which is to be found nowhere else here!
23rd CAWSTON® PRESS SPARKLING RHUBARB
FairPrice Finest Raffles Holland V Mall, Singapore
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.
25th POKKA SAPPORO GABUNOMI MELON CREAM SODA がぶ飲みメロンクリームソーダ
DON DON DONKI JCube, Singapore
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.
26th COCA COLA
Chen's Mapo Tofu, Singapore
Excellent salve to Sichuan-style heat. This one’s for @thegeneral 🥤
27th SUNKIST SPARKLING GRAPEFRUIT SODA 자몽 소다
Japan Home - The Star Vista, Singapore
Letting my seltzer freak flag fly today as I enjoy this perfectly balanced grapefruit soda. & today also feels like a salmon-colored day.
28th PEAR SPARKLER
Roast, Krung Thep Maha Nakhon
With a sprig of Rosemary for an interesting addition of flavor. Refreshing!
29th GINGER ALE
MI922, SIN - XMN
There's something about drinking ginger ale on a flight that makes it taste so much better.
