Instead of just proposing replacements, what are some unique soft drinks from your country? This is chinotto, an Italian soda made with a citrus similar to bitter orange called chinotto (lemmy.ca)

As an American, this post has only reinforced for me how shitty it is here.

    Yeah, I know we used to have a lot of local drinks and culture, but it's essentially all been killed by capitalism. Switchel is one that I'm aware of, but I know there are plenty of others.

    A lot of the current drinks are evolved from local drinks though, but now they seem boring and generic because they're common everywhere.
