Im at a point in my life where I try to drink less of that kind of stuff, so when I do I usually choose quality over quantity and pick some smaller brand making good stuff.
My usual is a brand called Lurisia. I especially enjoy their Chinotto, which is mostly caramelized sugar and a bitter aromatic citrus fruit, or bitter orange.
For the past couple of years, I’ve been grooving on Ramune, that Japanese drink in the glass bottles with the marble. It’s just sugar-water; the flavorings are mild, there’s no caffeine, and it’s pretty sweet, but it’s fun and tastes good. My Cub Foods carries it in the “foreign” section, and I’ll get a bottle a couple of times a year. It’s the only sweetened soda I drink.
We do drink a fair amount of soda water; just plain, unsweetened, unflavored carbonated water, but I don’t think that counts towards OP’s question. Gerolsteiner, mostly, but also non-mineral … Gerolsteiner has a taste, being mineral water, which I like but not so much with meals.

Me too. I miss my youthful metabolism.
