Drinks list
40Kola
Rating: 7.0/10
Review: A nice plain cola, fizzy but the taste isn't much.
40Kola Cut
Rating: 6.9/10
Review: A nice plain cola, fizzy but the taste isn't much. Tastes worse than 40Kola in a way I can't put my finger on.
40Kola Lemon and Lime
Rating: 7.4/10
Review: A nice light soda
A&W Root Beer

Barr Bubblegum
Rating: 6.6/10
Review: Bubblegum tasting, but is very overwhelming and ends up tasting a bit bland after a while. It's very strong leaving no room for any subtle flavours.
Barr DnB
Rating: 6.8/10
Review: Dandelion and burdock made cheaply available. Tastes good, but not as good as bottled.
Bundaberg Root Beer

Club Mate
Rating: 8.3/10
Review: TODO
Club-Mate, favorite drink of the Chaos Computer Club
Club Mate Winter Edition
Rating: 8.5/10
Review: Like Club Mate, but it has a few additives like Cinnamon that gives it a spicier taste that I quite like. The taste reminds me of Gingerbread so is perfect for Christmas time.
Club Mate is a not very sweet, dry soda made in Germany. Super popular with the Hacktiirs, its pronounced MAH-TEY! (Cf. Yerba Mate Tea)
Coca Cola
Rating: 4.4/10
Review: Fairly bland. It dries out my mouth and leaves me thirstier afterwards, so it fails at being a drink that satisfies your thirst. I suspect this is a carefully decided chemical dark pattern to make people buy another coca cola. Still, it's okay and generally agreeable.
Wherever you go, there are three icons that everyone knows: Jesus Christ, Pele and Coca-Cola.
Diet Coca Cola
Rating: N/A
Review: N/A
There are now more obese people in the United States than there are overweight people. I think it's safe to say that after all these years, Diet Coke is a complete failure.
Fentimen's Cherry Cola

Francis Hartridges Dandelion and Burdock
Rating: 8.0/10
Review:
You're rarer than a can of Dandelion & Burdock
Francis Hartridges Original Cola
Rating: 8.2/10
Review: A plain cola that isn't too much or too overpowering. Fairly plain and tastes good, especially when aerated.
Do you want to sell sugar water for the rest of your life, or do you want to come with me and change the world?
Irn-Bru
Rating:7.4/10
Review:
It's not a drink from those crazy Yanks, because it's made right here you know it's tougher than tanks
Liquid Death Severed Lime

Monster Energy
Rating: 2.6/10
Review: Tastes like battery acid and heartburn.
Monster Energy: Pipeline Punch
Rating: 7.9/10
Review: Pink Monster, tastes sweet, not the candy or fruity sweet but just sweet, but not too sweet like other flavours
Monster Energy: Pacific Punch
Rating: 7.6/10
Review: A more fruity tasting Monster Energy that retains a lot of the sweetness as Pipeline Punch. I feel like it is inferior and a bit too overwhelming in taste after a bit, but not as bad as Monarch or Khaotic.
Monster Energy: Monarch
Rating: 6.0/10
Review: A candy like sweetness to Monster, too sweet, but not bad. Does make you feel a bit ill after drinking it all though.
Monster Energy: Khaotic
Rating: 5.8/10
Review: Sweeter than Monarch but an indistinct and candy-like sweet that makes you feel a bit ill after drinking it, but to begin with it's quite nice.
Monster Energy: Zero Ultra
Rating: 7.4
Review: Kinda bland, but at least it doesn't make you sick to drink. Tastes sort of sweet too.
Pepsi
Rating: 6.2/10
Review: Still fairly bland and uninspiring, but it doesn't leave you as thirsty after you drink. I think it's better than Coca Cola, but not exactly amazing.
Imagine Pepsi without Coke. Impossible, right?
Pepsi Max
Rating: 5.2/10
Review: It's Pepsi but cheaper and it certainly tastes cheaper. Additionally, whatever chemical formula they use, makes it fizz a lot more when being poured, so it wastes your time when preparing a drink.
Maximum taste, no sugar.
Royal Crown Cola(RC Cola)
Rating: 6.8/10
Review: A drink I had in the Philippines. It's a competitor to Coca Cola, and it's a hell of a lot better than Coke.
Sprite
Rating: 6.7/10
Review: Lemonade
Red Bull
Rating: 6.8/10
Red Bull gives you wings
Red Kola
Rating: 7.1/10
Review: Made by the same company as Irn-Bru, and cheaper. It has little resemblence to Coca Cola, being red and just fizzy, but it does satisfy your thirst and tastes fairly sweet.
Better Red than Dead
