Dr Pepper hits the spot sometimes. As does a good rootbeer (Barqs or 1918), or sprite. I normally will drink a small Coke Zero (or Pepsi zero), and at night instead of snacking/boozing I’ll just have a Fresca or diet Ginger Ale, those also hit the spot.
Btw I almost only drink the smaller cans these days, what are they, 8oz I think?
