slipjig3Having just had the pleasure of introducing ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
wired_lizard and mllelaurel to the joys of Cherry 7-Up, I hereby present my Top 5 Soda List (or Top 5 Pop List, if you're my sister in Chicago who goes all stabby if you call it "soda"):
1) IBC Root Beer: I was a fanatic of IBC even as a college student in Illinois, when getting the stuff meant sending someone on a run to St. Louis. One of the most bizarre conversations I ever had was in my friend Jon's kitchen over IBC, when we determined that we were all a figment of Jeff Pinzino's imagination.
2) Schweppe's Diet Raspberry Ginger Ale: The only thing suitable for drinking with homemade tacos, since it can cut straight through the grease and directly to the palate, where it somehow makes you forget that you're about to have a coronary.
3) Green River: Yes, I'm a cultist. Do they even make this stuff any more?
4) Stewart's Birch Beer: One of the reasons I don't think I'll ever leave the Northeast.
5) anything from Boylan's Bottleworks: Glass bottles, people. And cane sugar. You know: real.
And the worst? Moxie. Failure in a glass. It tastes like gorilla.
